Combination of foreign DNA and vector DNA are together called as _______.

Question

In recombinant DNA technology, which enzyme is used to cut DNA at specific recognition sites to produce restriction fragments?

Answer 1

Recombinant DNA technology merges foreign DNA with vector DNA. A vector serves to transport foreign genetic material into a host cell. The synthesized foreign DNA and vector DNA hybrid is termed recombinant DNA. This recombinant DNA is introduced into a host organism to facilitate gene expression studies or the production of target proteins. Therefore, the correct answer is Recombinant DNA.
