Cloning low abundance PCR products

[David Schuster]

Dear netters,

Has anyone tried GIBCO BRL's UDG cloning method?   We routinely use it for
expression cloning of genes.  Normally we can capture a PCR product from genomic
DNA after 5-8 PCR cycles.  The low cycle number is used to minimize introduction
of mutations by Taq.  All comments welcome....and yes, I am affilated with
developing this technology.  I am interested in successes, failures, complaints,
whatever. 


Thanks.
