प्रश्न
While isolating DNA from bacteria, which of the following enzymes is not required?
पर्याय
Lysozyme
Ribonuclease
Deoxyribonuclease
Protease

उत्तर
Deoxyribonuclease
Explanation:
While isolating DNA from bacteria, deoxyribonuclease is not required because it degrades DNA itself. Ribonuclease, protease, and lysozyme are necessary to remove RNA, proteins, and to break cell walls, respectively.
