What happens when a restriction enzyme leaves blunt ends?
The restriction enzymes have ability to cut on a specific sequences that are knwon as palandreomic sequences now they cut in two way i.e. blunt and sticky for e.g. if we have a sequece of ATTCGTAAGC it will be cutted in two way as ...................................................TAAGCATTCG 1. ATTCG......... TAAGC i.e., blunt or straight form all ends ....TAAGC .........ATTCG 2. ATT .................CGTAAGC ....TAAGCAT .................TCG i.e., sticky or uneven ends The reason for this phenomena is still not clear or knwon
How can a restriction enzyme leave sticky ends between DNA fragments?
The sticky ends generated by restriction enzymes can easily be joined using an enzyme called ligase. Blunt ends however, cannot be joined so easily. This is why restiction enzymes that create sticky ends are more useful. If blunt ends result, small segments called modifiers are attached to the sticky ends. These modifiers are nucleotide sequences that have sticky ends and attach to the blunt ends, thus making them sticky ends.
What sticky ends does EcoR1 create?
EcoR1 creates sticky ends with a sequence of 5'-GAATTC-3'. This results in protruding ends with a 5' overhang on both strands of the DNA.
What is the restriction site of the restriction enzyme Hae III?
The restriction site of Hae III is GGCC. It cuts between the G and the C. This produces blunt ends.
Why do sticky ends have to be complementary?
Sticky ends need to be complementary in order to form hydrogen bonds between the bases of the nucleotides, which allows the two DNA fragments to anneal together and be ligated by DNA ligase. Without complementarity, the sticky ends would not be able to hybridize and join together efficiently.
Why there are sticky and blunt end produced in DNA?
sticky ends are more specific and easier to ligate
Which enzymes does not make sticky ends?
Enzymes that do not create sticky ends include blunt-end cutting enzymes such as SmaI and PvuII. These enzymes produce blunt-ended DNA molecules with no overhangs, making them unsuitable for creating cohesive ends for ligation.

What can restricted enzymes leave?
Restriction enzymes can leave blunt or sticky ends. This will depend on where they cut the DNA, if they cut at the same point on both strands, they will leave a blunt end, if they cut at different points, they will leave sticky ends. For example: (| represents point of cut) Blunt end ATC|GCTA TAG|CGAT Sticky end A|TCGCTA TAGCGA|T

What seals the sticky ends of restriction fragments to make recombinant DNA?
These sticky ends, if they two pieces match, they will join together to form a recombinant DNA.
What is a sticky end?
A Sticky End, referring to Biology is recombinant DNA. After DNA has been cut by a restriction enzyme it has "sticky ends" or recombinant DNA at the ends.
What are the types of cloning?
In general, sticky end cloning and blunt end cloning
Why are sticky ends called sticky?
Sticky ends are called "sticky" because the single-stranded overhangs created by certain restriction enzymes can bind to another DNA molecule with a complementary overhang, leading to the joining of the two DNA molecules. The complementary pairing between the sticky ends creates a temporary connection, similar to how something sticky adheres to another surface.
Do cdnas have sticky ends?
Generally, cDNA's do not have sticky ends - also known as overhangs. However, if the research requires it, they can be engineered to have overhangs
What are stick ends?
the enzymes cause sticky ends to form------------------------------------------------the question is WHAT ARE STICKY ENDS, not how are sticky ends formed.the answer is "single stranded pieces of DNA left at the ends of restriction fragmants"-simone :)The actual answer is: single-stranded ends of fragments of double-stranded DNA
What sticky ends does EcoR1 create?
EcoR1 creates sticky ends with a sequence of 5'-GAATTC-3'. This results in protruding ends with a 5' overhang on both strands of the DNA.
