Which of the following statements does not hold true for restriction enzyme ?

Options

A. It recognises a palindromic nucleotide sequence
B. It is an endonuclease
C. It is isolated from viruses
D. It produces the same kind of sticky ends in different DNA molecules.

Explanation

The restriction enzymes are called molecular scissors and are responsible for cutting DNA on specific sites. These are not foud in vi ruses.
They are present in bacteria to provide a type of defense mechanism called the restricition modification system and the so called system consist of two component restriction enzymes and modification enzyme.
The first component include restriction endonulease, which identify the introduced foreign DNA and cut it into process. same kind of sticky end in different individual molecule of DNA are also produced by these molecular scissore special special sequence in the DNA recognised by restriction endonuclease is called paindrome nucleotide sequence.
