Answer:
Correct Answer: A
Solution:
[a] A: Eco RI is an endonuclease enzyme isolated from strains of E.
coli, and is part of the restriction modification system.
B : Barn HI (from Bacillus amyloliquefaciens) is a type II restriction endonuclease having the capacity for recognising short sequences of DNA and specifically cleaving them at a target site.
C: Hind III is a type II site-specific deoxyribonuclease restriction enzyme isolated from Haemophilus influenzae that cleaves the DNA palindromic sequence AAGCTT in the presence of the cofactor $ M{g^{2+}} $ via hydrolysis.
D: pBR 322 is a plasmid and was one of the first widely used E.
coli cloning vectors.
