In 2012 a modified RAD tagging method called double digest RADseq (ddRADseq) was suggested. [10] [11] By adding a second restriction enzyme, replacing the random shearing, and a tight DNA size selection step it is possible to perform low-cost population genotyping.
Restriction digest is most commonly used as part of the process of the molecular cloning of DNA fragment into a vector (such as a cloning vector or an expression vector).The vector typically contains a multiple cloning site where many restriction site may be found, and a foreign piece of DNA may be inserted into the vector by first cutting the restriction sites in the vector as well the DNA ...
The restriction modification system (RM system) is found in bacteria and archaea, and provides a defense against foreign DNA, such as that borne by bacteriophages.. Bacteria have restriction enzymes, also called restriction endonucleases, which cleave double-stranded DNA at specific points into fragments, which are then degraded further by other endonucleases.
Low-resolution physical mapping is typically capable of resolving DNA ranging from one base pair to several mega bases. In this category, most mapping methods involve generating a somatic cell hybrid panel, which is able to map any human DNA sequences, the gene of interest [clarification needed], to specific chromosomes of animal cells, such as those of mice and hamsters.

A restriction map is a map of known restriction sites within a sequence of DNA.Restriction mapping requires the use of restriction enzymes.In molecular biology, restriction maps are used as a reference to engineer plasmids or other relatively short pieces of DNA, and sometimes for longer genomic DNA.
A pUC19 cloning vector showing the multiple cloning site sequence with restriction enzyme sites. A multiple cloning site (MCS), also called a polylinker, is a short segment of DNA which contains many (up to ~20) restriction sites—a standard feature of engineered plasmids. [1]
Golden Gate assembly involves digesting DNA sequences containing a type IIS restriction enzyme cut site and ligating them together. Golden Gate Cloning or Golden Gate assembly [1] is a molecular cloning method that allows a researcher to simultaneously and directionally assemble multiple DNA fragments into a single piece using Type IIS restriction enzymes and T4 DNA ligase. [2]
BglII catalyses phosphodiester bond cleavage at the DNA backbone through a phosphoryl transfer to water. [1] Studies on the mechanism of restriction enzymes have revealed several general features that seem to be true in almost all cases, although the actual mechanism for each enzyme is most likely some variation of this general mechanism.
