Question

Which sequence is a Type 2 restriction enzyme recognition site?

Answer 1

Type II Restriction enzyme:

1. In recombinant DNA procedures, type II restriction enzymes are commonly used.
2. Type II enzymes cleave inside symmetric (or 'palindromic') DNA sequences of 4 to 8 base pairs in length.
3. They are the simplest and smallest restriction enzymes, with a length of 250-350 amino acids.
