What does a restriction enzyme create that allows a gene to bond to a plasmid?
A. Covalent bonds
B. Sticky ends
C. Recognition site
D. Ligase

Respuesta :

Answer:

D. Ligase

Explanation:

Ligase is an enzyme that can catalyze the fusion of two large molecules through the formation of a new chemical bond, which is usually accompanied by the hydrolysis of a small end chemical group.

Ligases play an important role in linking DNA breaks during excision repair, DNA damage, or spontaneous lesions such as basal sites or oxidized bases.
