Identify the wrong statement with regards to Restriction Enzymes
Option: 1 Each restriction enzyme functions by inspecting the length of a DNA sequence
Option: 2 They cut the strand of DNA at palindromic sites
Option: 3 They are useful in genetic engineering
Option: 4 Sticky ends can be joined by using DNA ligases.
They recognize and bind to specific sequences of DNA, called restriction sites. Each restriction enzyme recognizes just one or a few restriction sites. When it finds its target sequence, a restriction enzyme will make a double-stranded cut in the DNA molecule. Hence, the correct option is (d).
