Which of the following is a restriction endonuclease?
Hind II
Protease
DNase I
RNase
As learnt in
Restriction Endonuclease -
These enzymes cleave DNA only within or near the specific base sequence. These sequences are called as recognition sites. They are of three types RE- I, RE-II and RE-III.
- wherein
1st Restriction enzyme (Hind II) was used in RDT.
Hind II are restriction endonuclease because they cleave DNA at specific sequence within DNA strand.
Option 1)
Hind II
This answer is correct
Option 2)
Protease
This answer is incorrect
Option 3)
DNase I
This answer is incorrect
Option 4)
RNase
This answer is incorrect
