Question

    Which of the following enzyme is not involved in the

    process of genetic engineering?
    A DNA ligase Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B DNA polymerase Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C DNA esterase Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Restriction endonuclease Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    DNA Ligase is used  to bind/glue the two different stands of DNA and Restriction  enzyme/  restriction  endonuclease cuts  a  DNA  molecule within  or  outside  at certain specific sites (recognition sites).DNA polymerase starts the synthesis of complementary nucleic acids using single stranded DNA as a template. All these enzymes are involved in the process of genetic engineering except DNA esterase.
