Mutate for Digest accepts a DNA sequence as input and searches for regions that can easily be mutated to create a restriction site of interest. The program also displays protein translations so that you can see which reading frames are altered by the proposed mutations. Use Mutate for Digest to find sequences that can be converted to a useful restriction site using PCR or site-directed mutagenesis.
