Recleavable Blunt Ends

white.gif (34 bytes)

The table below lists combinations of blunt-end restriction endonucleases that produce recleavable ligation products.The combinations listed were identified by computer analysis, and although we have tried to ensure their accuracy, they have not necessarily been confirmed by experimentation.

Enzymes that have degenerate recognition sequences (i.e. recognize more than one sequence) are followed by a specific sequence in parentheses and are only listed if a non-degenerate equivalent does not exist. Be aware that these degenerate enzymes will cleave sequences in addition to the one listed. Where isoschizomers exist, only one member of each set is listed. Only commercially available enzymes have been listed
