REBASE -- restriction enzymes and DNA methyltransferases
What you can do:
Find restriction enzyme information from the restriction enzyme database.
Highlights:
- REBASE is a comprehensive database of information about restriction enzymes, DNA methyltransferases and related proteins involved in the biological process of restriction-modification (R-M).
- It contains fully referenced information about recognition and cleavage sites, isoschizomers, neoschizomers, commercial availability, methylation sensitivity, crystal and sequence data.
- Experimentally characterized homing endonucleases are also included.
- The fastest growing segment of REBASE contains the putative R-M systems found in the sequence databases.
- Comprehensive descriptions of the R-M content of all fully sequenced genomes are available including summary schematics.
