Digest file export

The digest file is exported with Export|Save digest file as. The file name as the syntax

<project name>_<genome assembly>_<restriction site>_digests.txt

For instance, example_hg19_AAGCTT_digests.txt.

The first line of this file contains the column names, and all other lines correspomd to one restriction digest. Each line consists of 14 fields that are described in the table .

Description

1

Chromosome

chr1

Name of the reference sequence.

2

Digest_Start_Position

18376

3

Digest_End_Position

18392

1-based end position of the restriction digest.

4

Digest_Number

42

Consecutive digest number.

5

5’_Restriction_Site

DpnII

Name of the enzyme responsible for the cut at the 5’ end of the digest.

6

3’_Restriction_Site

DpnII

Name of the enzyme responsible for the cut at the 3’ end of the digest. May be different from field 5 if more than one enzyme is used.

7
