Question

How often would a restriction enzyme such as not i which has 8 nucleotides?

Answer 1

How often would a restriction enzyme such as NotI, which has 8 nucleotides in its recognition sequence sites 5'-GCGGCCGC-3' cleave DNA on average? Explain.

It would cleave DNA on an average of once every 2050 base pairs because it is less common the higher number of base pairs in the recognition sequence

hope this helps
