Abstract

A restriction site indexing method for selectively amplifying any fragment generated by a Class II restriction enzyme includes adaptors specific to fragment ends containing adaptor indexing sequences complementary to fragment indexing sequences near the termini of fragments generated by Class II enzyme cleavage A method for combinatorial indexing facilitates amplification of restriction fragments whose sequence is not known. Profiling methods and other methods for characterizing polynucleotides are presented.
