Which MCQ option gives the correct recognition sequence of EcoRI?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: GAATTC

The governing concept is restriction-enzyme specificity. EcoRI is a bacterial restriction endonuclease that recognizes the six-base-pair palindromic sequence 5′-GAATTC-3′ and cuts within this site, producing characteristic sticky ends. A palindrome reads correspondingly on the two complementary DNA strands, which is important for recognition by many restriction enzymes. Therefore option A, GAATTC, is correct. GGATCC is the familiar recognition sequence for BamHI, AAGCTT is associated with HindIII, and GGCC is associated with other restriction enzymes such as HaeIII. The alternatives are therefore plausible enzyme sequences but not EcoRI’s sequence.
