For preparation of recombinant DNA, the plasmid is cut with the same enzyme which was used for:
Correct answer: A. Isolation of the gene of interest
- A. Isolation of the gene of interest
- B. Cutting all such plasmids
- C. Cutting any piece of DNA
- D. Cutting extrachromosomal DNA
Explanation
The same restriction enzyme is used to cut both the plasmid and the gene of interest to create compatible onds for ligation.
