Which of the following statements does not hold true for restriction enzyme?
(a) It recongnises 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

A

It recongnises 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

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
More than 900 restriction enzymes have been isolated from over 230 strains of basteria each of which recongnise different recongition sequences. No restriction enzyme is isolated from viruses.
