What cuts DNA into fragments?
Enzymes called restriction endonucleases, also known as restriction enzymes, are used to cut DNA into fragments at specific nucleotide sequences. These enzymes recognize and cut DNA at specific recognition sites, creating DNA fragments of different sizes. This process is commonly used in molecular biology for genetic engineering and DNA analysis.
What 2 enzymes are during DNA replication Describe what each does during replication?
During DNA replication, two key enzymes are DNA helicase and DNA polymerase. DNA helicase unwinds and separates the double-stranded DNA, creating two single strands that serve as templates for replication. DNA polymerase then synthesizes new DNA strands by adding nucleotides complementary to the template strands, effectively elongating the newly formed DNA. Together, these enzymes ensure accurate and efficient replication of the genetic material.
At the DNA synthesis G2 checkpoint DNA replication is checked by 1 receptor proteins 2 Repair enzymes 3 electron transport chains 4 cell surface markers?
2 Repair enzymes. At the DNA synthesis G2 checkpoint, DNA replication is checked by repair enzymes that detect and repair any mistakes in the replicated DNA before the cell progresses to mitosis. Receptor proteins, electron transport chains, and cell surface markers are not directly involved in checking DNA replication at this checkpoint.
Why exonucleases are not used in r DNA technology?
Endonucleases are used in biotechnology because they are able to be applied to a specific part of a DNA sequence and will cut the DNA only in these locations. Exonucleases on the other hand have the following issues: 1) An exonuclease will digest and entirely consume DNA/RNA. As opposed to cut a specific location of DNA, they will eat the entire strand if they are not stopped. 2) They will only begin digestion at the ends of the DNA/RNA molecule. Circular plasmid DNA will not be affected by an exonuclease, because there are no beginnings or ends to the DNA sequence. 3) More over, as mentioned in (2) they will only begin digestion at the ends of the DNA sequences, thus they are much less accurate in where they begin cutting the DNA/RNA. Because of this lack of control of exonucleases, they are difficult to use and generally not used in biotechnological techniques.
What is the result of a DNA strand that undergoes relication?
two double-stranded DNA molecules, each composed of one new and one old strand.
What enzymes help separarte the 2 strands of nucleotides on DNA?
DNA helicase
DNA strands can be clipped crosswise at selected positions by using enzymes called?
DNA can be cut into smaller fragments by enzymes (which are proteins) known as restriction endonucleases (REN's). These enzymes are sequence specific - meaning they produce a cut only at a particular site on the DNA strand. This site where the cut is produced is called the restriction site. Restriction sites are 4 - 6 nucleotides in length. Every restriction enzyme has a different restriction site. This property allows researchers to treat two different DNA samples with the same set of restriction enzymes and then analyze the resulting fragments.A. DNA finger printing
When greasing the fittings on a car how much do you use?

What is it called when DNA separate into two strands?
DNA Replication by enzymes that copy DNA for chromosomes in the new cell after cell division (mitosis)
Describe the difference between a single digest and a double digest?
Restriction enzymes (endonucleases) are used for a variety of reasons in molecular genetics, including obtaining a "map" and cloning DNA. Single digests consitute DNA being treated with one restriction endonuclease, whereas double digests contain 2 enzymes. At times, it is difficult (or not possible) to perform double digests ... especially when the 2 enzymes have very different requirements for their activities (e.g. salt concentration, temperature optimums, ...). If a DNA restriction map is known for a particular enzyme, and if the DNA is treated with this enzyme, then one can ascertain whether the digest was complete or not. However, if a restrictioin map is just being compiled, and if the DNA is treated with 2 enzymes in a double digest, at times difficulties may arise in determining the map if either (or both) enzymes did not completely digest the DNA.

Why type 2 restriction enzyme is used in gene cloning?
Type 2 restriction enzymes are commonly used in gene cloning because they recognize specific DNA sequences and cleave the DNA at those sites, providing a way to cut and manipulate DNA fragments with precision. This allows researchers to insert a gene of interest into a vector for cloning purposes. Additionally, type 2 restriction enzymes are widely available and easy to use in the laboratory.
Of what biological significance is the DNA molecule?
The biological significance of a DNA molecule is that it: 1) Controls the synthesis of proteins (as well as enzymes because they are also proteins). 2) Is responsible for carrying hereditary characteristics.
