Abstract: NEBcutter, version 1.0, is a program available via a web server (http://tools.neb.com/NEBcutter) that will accept an input DNA sequence and produce a comprehensive report of the restriction enzymes that will cleave the sequence. It produces a variety of outputs including restriction enzyme maps, theoretical digests and links into the restriction enzyme database, REBASE (http://www.neb.com/rebase). Importantly, its table of recognition sites is updated daily from REBASE and it marks all sites that are potentially affected by DNA methylation (Dam, Dcm, etc.). Many options exist to choose the enzymes used for digestion, including all known specificities, subsets of those that are commercially available or sets of enzymes that produce compatible termini.

Letter to the editor: "The association of CD40 polymorphism (rs1883832C/T) and soluble CD40 with the risk of systemic lupus erythematosus among Egyptian patients".
TL;DR: The criteria for genotyping the rs1883832 CD40 SNP seem to be incorrect and the genotypic and allelic frequencies reported by the authors are incorrect since the presence of the minor allele is overrepresented, so the interpretation regarding the soluble CD40 levels in association with the genotypes of theCD40 SNP would also be affected.

Molecular detection and dense granule antigen 6 genotyping of feline Toxoplasma gondii in Phayao, Thailand
TL;DR: The data revealed that toxoplasmosis is remarkably distributed among (studied) domestic cats in Phayao, Thailand, and the virulent GRA6 allele was found to be circulated among domestic Cats in this area, suggesting that pet cats of any age, gender, or breed have similar risks of being infected with T. gondii.

TL;DR: Type II restriction endonucleases recognize short, usually palindromic, sequences of 4-8 bp and, in the presence of Mg(2+), cleave the DNA within or in close proximity to the recognition sequence.
