According to the cleavage mechanism of nucleic acid, they are divided into three types, namely free radical, phosphodiester bond hydrolysis and elimination cleavage agents. In this review, a series of cleavage agents, including the site- and sequence-specific ones, are illustrated, and some suggestions for the future researches in this field are also put forward.展开更多
