Question

Type II restriction enzymes cut the sequence in the following way a.Within the recognition sequence b.At 100-1000 nucleotides away from the recognition sequence c.At 27-30 nucleotides away from the recognition sequence d.It cuts randomly

Answer 1

Answer:

within the recognition sequence

Answer 2

Option a) Type II restriction enzymes cut the sequence within the recognition sequence.

• Restriction enzymes are used to cut or break the sequence at a particular recognition site.
• Type II restriction enzymes cut the sequence at the same place. In the case of Type II B enzymes, they cut the recognition site at both ends of the sequence. They cut the restriction site out of the sequence.
• Ultimately their recognition sequence lies within the sequence.
