Protocol is for directional blunt-end cloning of DNA fragments.  The target DNA is PCR-amplified, 3'-extensions are polished with Pfu DNA polymerase, and the amplicon is ligated to a blunt-ended plasmid DNA.  The products of the ligation reaction are used to transform competent Escherichia coli.  A restriction enzyme is added to the ligation reaction to relinearize any self-religating vector DNA.
