text: Some assembly methods also make use of type IIs restriction endonucleases. These differ from other type II endonucleases as they cut several base pairs away from the recognition site. As a result, the overhang sequence can be modified to contain the desired sequence. This provides Type IIs assembly methods with two advantages – it enables "scar-less" assembly, and allows for one-pot, multi-part assembly. Assembly methods that use type IIs endonucleases include Golden Gate and its associated variants.
