Class IIS restriction enzymes, a subgroup of class II, cleave DNA at a precise
location outside their recognition sites, and produce overhangs of unknown
sequences (
1
). Molecular indexing is a series of techniques designed to characterize DNA
fragments by these unknown sequences (
2
-
4
). I applied this principle for description of the total mRNA population using a
3' end cDNA fragment generated by class IIS restiction enzymes (
5
). The method is based on the finding that
Escherichia coli
DNA ligase discriminates three nucleotides adjacent to the joining site.
Fragments are discriminated by a library of 64 adaptors for all possible
overhangs, and selected fragments . . . [Full Text of this Article]
