This is because there might not be one restriction site bordering the gene to be cloned and the identical restriction site in the plasmid. Since these two restriction enzymes make compatible sticky ends, the insert has a chance of combining with the plasmid. To ensure efficient digestion, the two recognition sites should be more than 10 base pairs apart. If one of the enzymes is a poor cutter or if the sites are separated 10 base pairs or less, the digestions <span>should be performed sequentially</span>
High tides and low tides are caused by the moon. The moon's gravitational pull generates something called the tidal force. The tidal force causes Earth—and its water—to bulge out on the side closest to the moon and the side farthest from the moon. These bulges of water are high tides.
