Summary Introduction

To draw: The complementary strand of the given sequence.

Concept introduction:

DNA is a double stranded molecule consisting of two strands of nucleotides. The bases in one strand are complementary to the bases on the other strand. If the sequence of one DNA strand is known, the sequence of its complementary strand can be predicted. This is known as complementarity of DNA.

Summary Introduction

To determine: If the above given DNA molecule can be cut by Pvu I restriction enzyme, and if yes, draw the digested products.

Concept introduction:

Restriction enzymes recognize their specific target sequence and excise DNA at that sequence or adjacent to it. These specific sequences are known as restriction sites and the enzymes are known as DNA cutting enzymes. The restriction enzyme Pvu I recognizes a specific sequence. These make staggered cuts at or adjacent to their specific recognition site and produce sticky ends.
