Why is complete digestion necessary in restriction mapping?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because partial digestion can give a false fragment pattern

Restriction mapping infers the arrangement of restriction sites from the sizes and number of DNA fragments observed after digestion. The method therefore requires the enzyme to cut every accessible copy of each target site under the selected conditions. If digestion is partial, some molecules are cut at only a subset of sites, producing larger intermediate fragments in addition to the true complete-digest fragments. These extra bands can be mistaken for genuine map products and lead to an incorrect estimate of site order or distance. Thus option A is correct. DNA is not burned, gel electrophoresis is normally essential for observing sizes, and the protein nature of the enzyme does not explain the requirement. Appropriate enzyme amount, incubation, buffer, and DNA quality help obtain complete digestion.
