Christoph Gartmann reply a possible solution:

Here is another solution: You may write your own enzyme.dat file.
For example, if you write a file enz.dat like:
..
ApaI 5 G_GGCC'C -4
EcoRI 1 G'AATT_C 4
EcoRV 3 GAT'ATC 0
And run MAP
GCG>map/dat=enz.dat
GCG will read your enz.dat file, and when you select "*"(all enzyme),
there shall be only 3 enzymes selected.
Hope it will help.
