Using the RE Picker to display restriction enzyme sites in your insert that do not cut your vector.
Read more: Using the RE Picker to display restriction enzyme sites in your insert that do not cut your vector.It’s generally useful with restriction enzyme based cloning to know what restriction enzymes will cut your vector and not cut your insert, or vice versa. There are a few ways to accomplish this with MacVector, but a useful way is to prepare a file of enzymes that do not cut your vector. This is especially…
