Does anyone know anything about this (reference?). I have always done a klenow step before cloning but didn't realise that the ends were ragged because extra bases were added on? Quite a few of my applications would be wrecked by an extra A so any tips about eliminating them (if they exist) would be great. Chris Jones Biochemistry Dept Nottingham Univ.
