4. A linear fragment of DNA is exposed to a digest containing the individual restriction enzymes HindIII and SmaI and then with a combination of the two enzymes. According to the gel electrophoresis results, the fragments obtained are Linear DNA HindIII Smal cut with: HindIII + Smal DNA fragments (kb) 5.0 5.5 3.0 2.5 2.0 2.5 2.0 a. Draw a map of the restriction sites on this linear piece of DNA. b. The mixture of fragments produced by the combined enzymes was then digested with the enzyme EcoRI. The results are fragments that are 2.5 kb, 2.0 kb and 1.5 kb. Add the restriction site for EcoRI on the map you created above.

a. Draw a map of the restriction sites on this linear piece of
DNA.
b. The mixture of fragments produced by the combined
enzymes was then digested with the enzyme EcoRI. The
results are fragments that are 2.5 kb, 2.0 kb and 1.5 kb. Add
the restriction site for EcoRI on the map you created above.
