Does EcoRI leave blunt or sticky ends?

Open in App

Solution

Sticky ends:
Sticky ends can easily bond with complementary DNA fragments.
Sticky ends are produced when a restriction enzyme cuts the DNA molecule and produces overhangs.
EcoRIleaves sticky ends and produces AATT overhangs at 5'.
However, in blunt ends overhangs are not produced.
