What is NOT a function of restriction enzymes?

• cut DNA
• Protect bacteria from viruses
• Run DNA in a gel
• Analyze the sequence of DNA

Which of the following is a potential restriction site?

• AATATT
• CATTAC
• TGGGGT

What is the benefit of "sticky ends"?

• Easier to find DNA when it is stuck to side of tube
• Easier to use in genetic engineering
• There is no benefit. Have you ever tried to clean up sticky DNA?
• Easier to load a gel

Loading dye is used to do all of the following EXCEPT:

• make DNA sample heavier
• separate into colors so you know approximate location of DNA
• Stain DNA to make it more visible

Restriction enzyme buffers:

• Allow DNA to run through the gel
• Mimic the internal environment of the cell which produced the enzyme
• Cut the DNA
• Cause the bubbles to show in a gel after turning on the power supply
