Students have asked these similar questions
A. A plasmid is shown with the locations of various restriction enzyme sites labeled. If you cut the plasmid with Xhol and Xbal, which lane of the agarose gel represents the DNA fragments you would expect from the digestion?
B. If you now decide to cut the plasmid with EcoRI, how many fragments will be produced and what will their sizes be?
C. When running DNA samples on agarose gel, an electric field is applied. Towards which electrode will the DNA migrate and why?
The function of a restriction enzyme is to
a. prevent the movement of DNA outside the nucleus
b. separate the DNA double helix
c. cut the nucleotide sequence at a specific location in DNA
d. proofread DNA for accidental damages and corrects these errors
The same restriction endonuclease must be used to excise the foreign DNA and bacterial DNA.
Select one:
True
False
Why?
Select one:
a. It must use different restriction endonucleases because the bacterial and foreign DNA sequences are different.
b. It must use same restriction endonuclease so that the restriction sites are identical in both foreign and bacterial DNA.
c. It must use same restriction endonuclease so that the restriction sites are different in both foreign and bacterial DNA.
d. It must use different restriction endonucleases because the bacterial and foreign DNA sequences are exactly the same.
