Identify the wrong statement with regard to Restriction Enzymes
  1. A
    Sticky ends can be joined by using DNA ligases.
  2. B
    They cut the strand of DNAat palindromic sites.
  3. C
    Each restriction enzyme functions by inspecting the length of a DNA sequence.
  4. D
    They are useful in genetic engineering
View written solutionFree

Correct answer: A

Restriction endonucleases make cuts at specific positions within the DNA. They function by inspecting the length of a DNA sequence. Restriction endonuclease binds to the DNA and cut the two strands of double helix at specific points in their sugarphosphate backbones. They are used in genetic engineering to form recombinant molecules of DNA. DNA ligases join the DNA fragments.
