Question

Which of the following tools of recombinant DNA technology is wrongly paired with its use? (A) Restriction endonuclease ? Production of DNA fragments from gene cloning. (B) DNA ligase ? Enzyme that cuts DNA producing sticky ends (C) DNA polymerase ? Copies DNA sequences in the PCR (D) Reverse transcriptase ? Production of c DNA from mRNA
