text:
A nicking enzyme is an enzyme that cuts one strand of a double-stranded DNA or RNA at a specific recognition nucleotide sequences known as a restriction site. Such enzymes hydrolyze (cut) only one strand of the DNA duplex, to produce DNA molecules that are “nicked”, rather than cleaved. They can be used for strand-displacement amplification, Nicking Enzyme Amplification Reaction, exonucleolytic degradation, the creation of small gaps, or nick translation. The latter process has been successfully
