CRISPR/Cas9 2.) restriction enzymes 3.) transcription factors 4.) topoisomerasesarrow_forwardDescribe how restriction enzymes like EcoR1 are used to create recombinant plasmids and what the process is for using these plasmids to replicate a piece of target DNA. Include information about how to create sticky ends, the makeup of the bacterial plasmid and how to tell if the gene was successfully inserted in the plasmid and if the plasmid has been transformed by the bacteria. You may use a drawing to enhance your description.arrow_forwardWhat are the sticky ends of the restriction fragments? Select one: a. The surfaces of sticky ends contain matching base pairs, allowing fragments to splice. b. The surfaces of sticky ends have glue like substance that allow fragments to splice. c. The surfaces of sticky ends contain the exact same nucleotides, allowing fragments to bond. d. The surfaces of sticky ends have velcro like structure, allowing fragments to bond.arrow_forward
