REBASE is a comprehensive database of information about restriction enzymes and related proteins. It contains published and unpublished references, recognition and cleavage sites, isoschizomers, commercial availability, methylation sensitivity, crystal and sequence data. DNA methyltransferases, homing endonucleases, nicking enzymes, specificity subunits and control proteins are also included. M...

The genomic organization of the human MHC was examined in multiple examples of six different supratypes using pulsed field electrophoresis (PFGE) after digestion of genomic DNA with infrequency cutting restriction endonucleases. Differences in restriction fragment length and band intensity were shown to be specific for each supratype. Mapping of the MHC revealed that each supratype contains pre...

Rat genomic DNA was digested with various restriction endonucleases, separated by gel electrophoresis and hybridized to 125 I-labeled mRNA for the precursor protein to growth hormone. Restriction sites were found within the genomic DNA that were not found in the previously reported DNA sequence corresponding to the mRNA (19). It appears that the gene for growth hormone contains intervening sequ...
