What ratio are you using? Perhaps you are not using enough samples?

Hi,
You don't need to phosphorylate the insert. There should be 5' P after RE digestion.

What do you mean you are not getting the ligated product??
I presume you are transforming bacteria with your product? Do you mean you get no colonies? or no correct colonies? Are there any colonies on your control plate?
