Using Fig. 3-3a as a guide, draw the complete structure of a nucleoside triphosphate before and after it becomes incorporated into a polynucleotide chain. Draw the structure that would result if the newly formed phosphodiester bond were hydrolyzed.
Hypoxanthine can also base-pair with cytosine. Draw the structure of this base pair.
Refer to the diagram of pUC18 (Fig. 3-24) to determine which restriction enzymes you could use to insert a gene that would interfere with production of β-galactosidase by the host cell.
Practice drawing the structures of adenine, adenosine, and adenylate.
Explain how restriction enzymes generate either sticky ends or blunt ends.
