What does “Restriction enzymes” actually mean in Biotechnology & its Applications, and why does it matter for NEET?
molecular scissors that cut DNA only at specific palindromic recognition sequences.
In simple words: molecular scissors that cut DNA only at specific palindromic recognition sequences. Getting Restriction enzymes clear matters because NEET questions on Biotechnology & its Applications usually test this idea directly, not just a formula you memorised.
Key point
Restriction enzymes
Common mistake
thinking restriction enzymes cut DNA at random points.
Memory tip
each restriction enzyme recognises one specific sequence and cuts only there.
