Abstract
Novel methods and kits for detecting mismatches in nucleic acids using one or more resolvase enzymes. These methods can be used in medical procedures or research, veterinary procedures or research, agricultural applications, forensics, and paternity testing. For example, in forensics and paternity testing, methods of the invention can replace or complement RFLP mapping.
