Many restriction endonucleases (restriction enzymes) recognize specific palindromic sequences and cut them.

Hyseq, Synteni and other companies have ingenious methods for recognizing sequences of DNA.

He worked on petrography at the Geological Survey of Saxony and developed methods to recognize stratigraphic sequences by petrographic and structural analysis.

Without methods to account for this "context dependence", the standard modular assembly procedure often fails unless it is used to recognize sequences of the form (GNN).

Before her second birthday, Audrey Walker recognized sequences of five colors.

The transcription factors recognize short sequences of DNA, about six to eight units in length, which lie just in front of the gene to be transcribed.

There are bacteria that produce a few enzymes which actually snip or join DNA by recognizing specific sequences for snipping or joining between two nucleotides.

Under normal circumstances, caspases recognize tetra-peptide sequences on their substrates and hydrolyze peptide bonds after aspartic acid residues.

To overcome this challenge, mutagenesis and high throughput screening methods have been used to create meganuclease variants that recognize unique sequences.

Some recognize palindromic sequences while others have asymmetric recognition sites.
