We revisit the Double Digest problem, which occurs in sequencing of large DNA strings and consists of reconstructing the relative positions of cut sites from two different enzymes: we first show that double digest is strongly NP-complete, improving previous results that only showed weak NP-completeness. Even the (experimentally more meaningful) variation in which we disallow coincident cut sites turns out to be strongly NP-complete. In a second part, we model errors in data as they occur in real-life experiments: we propose several optimization variations of Double Digest that model partial cleavage errors, which occur for various reasons. We then show APX-completeness for most of these variations. In a third part, we investigate these variations with the additional restriction that conincident cut sites are disallowed and we show that it is NP-hard to even find feasible solutions in this case, thus making it impossible to guarantee any approximation ratio at all.
