Enzyme that recognizes the same recognition sequence.

OBS

In general, different restriction enzymes recognize different sequences. However, there are several examples of enzymes isolated from different sources that cleave within the same target sequences. In addition, several enzymes have been discovered that recognize tetranucleotide sequences. In some cases these tetranucleotides occur within hexanucleotide target sequences of other enzymes.
