apart from the base sequence, what is different about the ends of restriction fragments produced by the following restriction enzymes? what type of ends are produced?(the arrow represents the site of cleavage in each strand

Respuesta :

The difference about the ends of restriction enzymes is that the HaeIII produces a blunt end when cut whereas MaeI and CfoI produce sticky ends when cut by the enzyme.

Restriction enzymes also have another name called molecular scissors. These are the enzymes that cut the continuous strand of DNA by producing a nick at the phosphodiester bond of the backbone. These are divided into two categories: exonucleases and endonucleases.

Sticky ends are the region produced by the cut through restriction enzymes. In this both the strands of DNA are cut at separate places and therefore one strand remains longer than the other strand.

The given question is incomplete, the complete question is:

Apart from the base sequence, what is different about the ends of restriction fragments produced by the following restriction enzymes? what type of ends are produced?(the arrow represents the site of cleavage in each strand).

  1. HaeIII (5'-GG^CC-3')
  2. MaeI (5'-C^TAG-3')
  3. CfoI (5'-GCG^C-3')
