            <link>http://biowww.net/detail-2.html</link>
            <description>Double restriction digestion of DNA involves simultaneously DNA double digestion using two restriction enzymes. It is important to chose right enzymes with compatible buffers so that both enzymes have high activity. Most vendors provide restriction digestion b ...</description>

            <description>I start out with high molecular weight DNA. When I try and carryout my digestion it seems as though my DNA is being degraded by the enzyme and I have tried two different enzymes. When I just add water or buffer or water/buffer to the DNA it is fine i.e. high m ...</description>

            <description>I am genotyping the mice for defective leptin receptor allele (db). According to the protocol I have to run Rsa digestion on the PCR products in order to digest 135 bp fragments into 108 and 25 bp pieces. It seems to work for heterozygotes (I get two bands), b ...</description>

            <title>Labelling of oligos: an interesting phenomenon</title>
            <link>http://biowww.net/detail-113.html</link>
            <description>I had to label about 40-50 primers, and while doing this I have spotted a 
 strange phenomenon: the labelling efficiency could drop to less then 10% 
 depending on the first nucleotide of the primer, independently of the 
 sequence and condition. ... ...

            <description>I am trying to digest a plasmid with BclI whose optimum temperature is at 
 50C. With time, water evaporates and obviously affects the reaction

            <description>I have performed a digest on a vector (pCMV) to use in a ligation. How can I tell if the digest was successful? The difference in size of the undigested and digested vector is only 30 base pairs. I have not run on a gel because the undigested is 4.3 kb and I d ...</description>

            <description>It is not uncommon to have difficulties in digesting DNA with restriction enzymes. At times, the DNA does not appear to cut at all and sometimes it cuts only partially. If the sequence is known, restriction sites can be predicted with accuracy, but in the lab, ...</description>
