We describe a method to ligate a PCR-amplified DNA fragment with T-protruding cassettes, which have multiple sites for endonuclease, promoter sequences of T3 and T7, and annealing sites for the universal M13 forward and reverse primers. This method, which we named T-cassette ligation, substantially facilitated direct sequencing and subcloning of PCR products. Two T-cassettes with a protruding T...
