A restrictionfragment is a DNA fragment resulting from the cutting of a DNA strand by a restriction enzyme restriction endonucleases , a process called restriction. Each restriction enzyme is highly specific, recognising a particular short DNA sequence, or restriction site, and cutting both DNA strands at specific points within this site. Most restriction sites are Palindromic sequence palindromic , the sequence of nucleotides is the same on both strands when read in the 5 to 3 direction , and are four to eight nucleotide s long. Many cuts are made by one restriction enzyme because of the chance repetition of these sequences in a long DNA molecule, yielding a set of restriction fragments. A particular DNA molecule will always yield the same set of restriction fragments when exposed to the same restriction enzyme. Restriction fragments can be analyzed using techniques such as gel electrophoresis or used in recombinant DNA technology. Image Restriction enzyme.jpg thumb Illustration of typical restriction enzyme cleavage. In recombinant DNA technology specific restriction endonucleases are used that will isolate a particular gene and cleave the sugar phosphate backbones at different points retaining symmetry , so that the double stranded restriction fragments have single stranded ends. These short extensions, called sticky ends can form hydrogen bond ed base pairs with complementary sticky ends on any other DNA cut with the same enzyme such as a bacterial plasmid . In agarose gel electrophoresis , the restriction fragments yield a band pattern characteristic of the original DNA molecule and restriction enzyme used, for example the relatively small DNA molecules of viruses and plasmids can be identified simply by their restrictionfragment patterns.

In genetics , chromosomal polymorphism is a condition where one species contains members with varying chromosome counts or shapes. Polymorphism biology Polymorphism is a general concept in biology where more than one version of a trait is present in a population. In some cases of differing counts, the difference in chromosome counts is the result of a single chromosome undergoing fission, where it splits into two smaller chromosomes, or two undergoing fusion, where two chromosomes join to form one. This condition has been detected in many species. Trichomycterus davisi , for example, is an extreme case where the polymorphism was present within a single Chimera genetics chimeric individual. ref cite journal journal Genet. Mol.

Unreferenced date December 2009 Restriction sites , or restriction recognition sites , are locations on a DNA molecule containing specific sequences of nucleotide s, which are recognized by restriction enzyme s. These are generally palindromic sequence s because restriction enzymes usually bind as homodimer s , and a particular restriction enzyme may cut the sequence between two nucleotides within its recognition site, or somewhere nearby. For example, the common restriction enzyme EcoRI recognizes the palindromic sequence GAATTC and cuts between the G and the C on both the top and bottom strands, leaving an overhang an end portion of a DNA strand with no attached complement on each end, of AATT. This overhang can then be used to ligate in see DNA ligase a piece of DNA with a complementary overhang another EcoRI cut piece, for example .

The restriction point is a G1 phase G sub 1 sub phase cell cycle checkpoint checkpoint in the cell cycle of animal cell biology cell s. Prior to the restriction point, a cell exits the cell cycle if specific mitogenic and growth signals are absent. Cells that progress past the restriction point are committed to enter S phase , where DNA synthesis and DNA replication replication occurs. Yeast cells contain a similar checkpoint, termed the START point . Discovery of the restriction point In 1974, Arthur Pardee demonstrated that a single restriction point exists for a variety of proliferative and antiproliferative inputs ref Pardee A. Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci. USA Vol. 71, No. 4, pp. 1286 1290, April 1974 ref . These inputs are integrated in a single switch, termed the restriction point, that regulates the reentry of a cell into a new round of the cell cycle. Lack of growth factor s causes some cells to arrest prior to the restriction point. In 1985, Zetterberg and Larsson discovered that, in all stages of the cell cycle, serum deprivation results in inhibition of protein synthesis except in postmitotic cells in the first 3 4 hours of G1 ref Zetterberg, A and Larsson, O, PNAS 1985, 82 5365 5369. ref . If external conditions are not appropriate for S phase, then the cell may enter G0 phase G sub 0 sub phase , a quiescence quiescent stage. Pardee also demonstrated that the restriction point is defective in cancer cell lines, providing physiological relevance for this molecular switch. Mutation s in factors contributing to cell cycle arrest at the restriction point are thought to be the main contributors to cancer ref Cancer Cell Cycles, Charles J.

In mathematics , restriction of scalars also known as Weil restriction is a functor which, for any finite field extension extension of fields L k and any algebraic variety X over L , produces another variety Res sub L k sub X , defined over k . It is useful for reducing questions about varieties over large fields to questions about more complicated varieties over smaller fields. Definition Let L k be a finite extension of fields, and X a variety defined over L . The functor math mathrm Res L k X math from k scheme mathematics schemes sup op sup to sets is defined by math mathrm Res L k X S X S times k L math In particular, the k rational points of math mathrm Res L k X math are the L rational points of X . The variety that representable functor represents this functor is called the restriction of scalars, and is unique up to unique isomorphism if it exists. From the standpoint of sheaf mathematics sheaves of sets, restriction of scalars is just a pushforward along the morphism Spec L math to math Spec k and is right adjoint to fiber product , so the above definition can be rephrased in much more generality. In particular, one can replace the extension of fields by any morphism of ringed topos topoi , and the hypotheses on X can be weakened to e.g. stacks. This comes at the cost of having less control over the behavior of the restriction of scalars.
