Better try to create a palindromic arrangement by following base-pair rules.

Question

Collect five examples of palindromic DNA sequences by consulting your teacher. Better try to create a palindromic arrangement by following base-pair rules.

Answer 1

The DNA molecule contains palindrome nucleotide sequences, identical when read in both directions as 5'-3' or 3'-5'. Restriction enzymes act at these sites.

 Below are five palindromic DNA sequence examples:

 i. 5' GGATCC 3' ---------3' CCTAGG 5' ---------

ii. 5' AAGCTT 3' ---------3' TTCGAA 5' ---------

 iii. 5'ACGCGT 3' ---------3' TGCGGA 5'--------- 5' ACGCGT 3' -------- 3'-- ----- TGCGCA 5'

iv. 5' ACTAGT 3' --------- 3' TGATCA 5' --------- v. 5' AGGCCT 3' --------- 3' TCCGGA 5' --------
