I have designed 5'phosphorylated linker with sticky end and restriction sites. I have 25 nmol conc of each separate strand.

Here is the sample construct:

strand 1.

5 ....agctt---------18bp----------gcggccgcac... 3

HindIII site 3.............a---------18bp-------gccggcgtgagct....5 xhoI site

I would really appreciate if you could tell me the following:

1. What should the solvent be for these linkers? Water or some buffer?

2. How should I anneal these strands together?

3. What should be the appropriate ratio of double digested vector and annealed linker?

4. Is concatemer formation possible in this case?
