LAMBDA-SK DIPHASMIDS - PHAGE-LAMBDA VECTORS FOR GENOMIC, JUMPING LINKING AND CDNA LIBRARIES

Fifteen new phage lambda vectors are discussed: lambdaSK4, lambdaSK6, lambdaSK10, lambdaSK16, lambdaSK17, lambdaSK20, lambdaSK21, lambdaSK22 , lambdaSK23, lambdaSK24, lambdaSK25, lambdaSK27, lambdaSK28, lambdaSK 40 and lambdaSK41. Their structural and functional features facilitate the implementation of a number of new strategies and cloning procedur es which simplify, economize and vastly improve the utility and effici ency of library construction in lambda vectors. Such improved strategi es and examples of their application, with particular reference to jum ping and linking libraries, are presented.
