<span>Scientists who wish to clone genes of interest into bacterial plasmids utilize restriction enzymes, which cuts the target and vector DNA at specific sites. then DNA ligase is used to form covalent bonds between the resulting fragments to complete the recombinant DNA molecule.

</span>

<span>Restriction enzymes (endonucleases) are enzymes which recognize specific target sequences (recognition sites) and will make a double-stranded cut in the DNA molecule at or near recognition sites.</span>

DNA ligase is an enzyme which uses ATP to link two DNA molecules if they have matching ends.

Life as we know it depends on the genetic code: a set of codons, each made up of three bases in a DNA sequence and corresponding
Nana76 [90]

The right answer is 5.

To answer this question it is sufficient to take the same approach as the one that concluded that each amino acid is equivalent to 3 codons.

We have 17 amino acids, each of which must have at least one unique code (having two nucleotides A and T) .

it is enough to apply this time to count the number of possible codons to be generated according to the number of nucleotides:

nucleotide set ^ number of nucleotides = number of codons .

2 ^ 1 = 2 (<17)

2 ^ 2 = 4 (<17)

2 ^ 3 = 8 (<17)

2 ^ 4 = 16 (<17)

2 ^ 5 = 32 (> 17)

So, each amino acid has a codon of 5 nucleotides.
