A description of restriction endonuclease cleavage sites within a piece of DNA. Generating such a map is usually the first step in characterizing an unknown DNA, and a prerequisite to manipulating it for other purposes. Typically, restriction enzymes that cleave DNA infrequently (e.g. those with 6 bp recognition sites) and are relatively inexpensive are used to produce at a map.
A physical map of a piece of DNA showing recognition sites of specific restriction endonucleases separated by lengths marked in numbers of bases.
a linear array of sites on DNA cleaved by various restriction enzymes
A diagram of all or part of a dsDNA molecule which indicates the positions (in base pairs) of restriction enzyme recognition/cutting sites. Used extensively in identification of DNA fragments and in developing procedures for manipulating cloned DNA.
A map of a DNA sequence showing the restriction sites of one or more restriction enzymes.
The linear array of restriction endonuclease sites on a DNA molecule. See mapping.
A partial genetic map of a DNA molecule, showing the points at which particular restriction endonuclease recognition sites reside.
A map of a chromosomal region showing the positions of target sites of one or more restriction enzymes.
A physical map which shows the order and distances between cleavage sites of site-specific restriction endonucleases.
Map of DNA showing the position of sites recognized and cut by various restriction endonucleases.
A "cartoon" depiction of the locations within a stretch of known DNA where restriction enzymes will cut.
