Hello,
This particular enzyme is not yet present as part of our Restr Enzymes 
track (Restriction Enzymes from REBASE). We are in the process of 
getting this updated. Also, restriction enzymes are not pre-mapped to 
the genome. The data track is designed to be viewable on-demand against 
a displayed region of interest in the assembly. This will not help 
address your questions about potential recognition sites or their 
density within a genome.

However, a unix command-line tool has been developed by one of our 
scientists that will perform this type of mapping. The general idea is 
for us to make this mapping tool available as part of the source code 
tree we release for research use. From there, you would need to generate 
your own data/statistics. For viewing results, the data could be 
formatted into a custom track and uploaded to view against the genomic 
and other annotation tracks.

We are in the process updating our REBASE file and packaging up the tool 
with instructions. When complete, we will send you an email to let you 
know it is ready.

Thank you,
Jennifer Jackson
