DNA Digestion

DNA digestion involves the cleavage of DNA molecules at specific sites by using restriction enzymes or other DNA-cleaving enzymes. Restriction enzymes, also known as restriction endonucleases, are naturally occurring proteins that recognize specific DNA sequences and cleave the DNA at or near these recognition sites. Depending on the specific variety, digestion enzymes can be used to break down cell walls to improve protein or nucleic acid extraction efficiency or remove nucleic acids from recombinant proteins.
