So The plasmid was digested by restriction enzyme(NeB) EcoR1, EcoR1 site was including at the polylinker site. The digested plasmid was running the 1% agarose gel, I eluted the band of 6.2kb plasmid by QIAGEN kits(LRS lab). But when the eluted plasmid was running 1% agarose, I found the two bands of 6.2kb, 2-3kb. But this 2-3kb band was variable in size from 3kb to <2kb. I don't know that 2-3kb plamid band is generated from eluted plasmid DNA. I hope you your kindness. chamel@plaza.snu.ac.kr .
