View the Restriction Fragment Summary

Select Sites & Features > Restriction Fragment Summary to view a tabular summary for Enzymes - Restriction Map methods applied to the assay surface.

 

      The restriction enzymes selected from the assay surface will appear in the tabular summary. If none are selected, then all will appear in the tabular summary.

 

      The summary lists the following data for single, double, and triple digests; the number and position of cuts; the enzyme responsible for each cut; and the length of the fragment.

 

The following options are used in conjunction with Enzymes - Restriction Map methods.

 

      Linearize Sequence: Select Sites & Features > Linearize Sequence to reverse GeneQuest’s assumption that a given sequence is circular. This is especially important in restriction site analysis, since GeneQuest may find fewer cut sites on a linear strand than on a circular one.

 

      Sub-range Context: Select Sites & Features > Sub-range Context to search for restriction sites in the sequence where the recognition site lies outside the sub-range of sequence specified.

 

Note: Sub-range Context has no effect unless you have used the Set Ends button.

 

      Include Uncertain Sites: Select Sites & Features > Include Uncertain to label potential restriction sites by favorably interpreting ambiguous DNA residues. For example, the sequence ANGCTT, an uncertain site for HindIII (AAGCTT), would be labeled as a cut site.
