प्रश्न
Given below is the restriction site of a restriction endonuclease Pst-I and the cleavage sites on a DNA molecule.
\[\ce{5' C - T - G - C - A \overset{\downarrow}{-}{G 3'}}\]
\[\ce{3' G\underset{\uparrow}{-} A - C - G - T - C 5'}\]
Choose the option that gives the correct resultant fragments by the action of the enzyme Pst-I.

उत्तर
| 5' C - T - G - C - A | G 3' |
| 3' G | A - C - G - T - C 5' |
Explanation:
Enzyme Pst-I makes a staggered cut of the DNA at its recognition sequence.
