Restriction landmark genomic scanning
ID: restriction-landmark-genomic-scanning
Restriction Landmark Genomic Scanning (RLGS) is a molecular biology technique used for analyzing genomic DNA. It is primarily utilized for the detection of genetic variations such as polymorphisms, mutations, and structural alterations within genomic sequences. The method involves several key steps: 1. **Restriction Digestion**: The genomic DNA is first digested with specific restriction enzymes that cut the DNA at particular sequences. This generates a set of DNA fragments.
