Why would you NOT expect a restriction endonuclease to exist that would recognize the site AAGGAA?
5.
If the hypothetical restriction endonuclease CutVI were to recognize and cleave a circular piece of DNA at 6
different sites, how many fragments of DNA would result?

Answer the above question for CutVI if the starting DNA were linear instead of circular.
7.
If the electrical leads were reversed by mistake (red connected to black), what would be the result?
The gel would run backwards, with DNA moving the other direction.
The DNA would separate as usual, only now the larger pieces would travel farther and smaller
pieces shorter distances.
The DNA would not move at all.
