Question

_________, useful in recombinant DNA technology, are bacterial enzymes that recognize and cut specific sequences of DNA. (2 words)

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is- restriction enzyme

Explanation:

Restriction enzymes are also known as restriction endonuclease which is used in the recombinant DNA technology because they have property of recognizing and cutting a specific DNA sequence.

Every restriction enzyme is different and different restriction enzymes recognize different sequences in DNA and cut them. Restriction enzymes are divided into 4 types of classes, type I, II, III, IV.

These different types of restriction enzymes cut different specific nucleotide sequence. Therefore the correct answer is restriction enzymes.
