Specific sequences of four or six nucleotides arranged symmetrically in reverse order where restriction enzymes work are known as
Correct answer: B. Palindromic sequences
- A. Okazaki fragment
- B. Palindromic sequences
- C. Promoter sequences
- D. Primer
Explanation
In molecular biology, palindromic sequences are referred to as the sequence of nucleotides in the DNA duplex or RNA, where the sequence in one strand is the same as the complementary sequence of the other strand when read from the same direction on both the strands, either 5' to 3' or 3' to 5'.
