Sequence alignments of the 16s rRNA gene were screened for recognition sequences of restriction endonucleases that contained DNA substitutions that were fixed between La.
The reagent comprises a surface to which is linked an enzyme donor fragment through a protease recognition sequence, where the enzyme donor fragment complexes with an enzyme acceptor fragment to form an active indicator enzyme when the enzyme donor fragment is cleaved from said surface.
The smaller the recognition sequence, the smaller the average size of the fragments produced and thus the greater the number of different fragments generated by the digestion.
