Chapter 21, Problem 21.1PS
Summary Introduction
To determine: The restriction map of phage DNA representing restriction site for the enzymes X and Y along with the information regarding the length of DNA between the sites.
Introduction: The restriction enzymes cleave DNA between specific sequences. These sequences are specific for an restriction enzyme. The restriction enzyme that cleaves DNA from any of the side is called as exonuclease while the restriction enzymes cleaving the DNA from within are called as endonuclease. The specificity of the restriction enzymes has enabled us to study and manipulate genetic content.

Restriction digestion and Gel electrophoresis: A single strand of a double-stranded DNA sequence is shown below. Draw a complementary DNA strand and show the restriction digestion pattern of the double-stranded DNA with BamHI and Pst1. Show the separation pattern of the undigested and the digested DNA on your agarose gel. Label the gel appropriately.

Restriction mapping sample question
You have a 5.3 kb PstI fragment cloned into the PstI
site of the vector pUC19, which is 2.7 kb in size. This
vector has unique sites for the following enzymes in a
multiple cloning site:
PstI, HincII, Xbal, BamHI, SmaI, EcoRI
A restriction map of the 5.3 kb insert is prepared. The
recombinant plasmid is digested with the enzymes
listed above in single digests, and then several
combinations of enzymes are tested in double
digests. The following bands are observed when the
digests are run on a gel:
