Restriction mapping is a method used to map an unknown segment of DNA by breaking it into pieces and then identifying the locations of the breakpoints. This method relies upon the use of proteins ...

A mathematical discovery has extended the reach of a novel genome mapping method to humans, potentially giving cancer biology a faster and more cost-effective tool than traditional DNA sequencing.

By focusing exclusively on the highly conserved inverted repeat region of the chloroplast genome, we extend comparative restriction site mapping to greater evolutionary depths than those to which it ...

Restriction site maps of chloroplast DNA (cpDNA), maternally inherited in Clarkia, were obtained in representative species of all seven diploid sections, the allotetraploid sect. Clarkia, and the ...
