The use of restriction enzymes and electrophoresis to generate a map of the DNA molecule is known as RESTRICTION MAPPING. This technique is used to map an unknown fragment of DNA.
Restriction enzymes are enzymes that cut a DNA fragment at specific nucleotides sites, thereby generally smaller fragments of DNA.
Restriction mapping is a strategy used to map unknown fragments of DNA by digesting them into smaller fragments and then identifying the specific sites of the DNA breakpoints.
Restriction mapping can then be used to create a diagram of fragments of DNA marked with specific sites where they are cut by specific restriction enzymes.
