Definitions for "Palindromic sequence"
A double-stranded DNA sequence with a two-fold rotational axis of symmetry (dyad symmetry).
Nucleotide sequence that is identical to its complementary sequence when each is read in the same direction (e.g., 5¡¯-3¡¯). Many sites recognized by restriction enzymes are palindromes.
Nucleotide sequence that is identical to its complementary strand when each is read in the same chemical direction - for example, GATC.
