Detailed explanation-1: -When the restriction enzyme recognizes a DNA sequence, it also hydrolyzes the bond between adjacent nucleotides and cuts through the DNA molecule. BamHI is also a type II restriction enzyme, isolated from Bacillus amyloliquefaciens.

Detailed explanation-2: -BamHI (pronounced “Bam H one") (from Bacillus amyloliquefaciens) is a type II restriction endonuclease, having the capacity for recognizing short sequences (6 bp) of DNA and specifically cleaving them at a target site.

Detailed explanation-3: -BamHI is a type II restriction enzyme derived from Bacillus amyloliquefaciens. Like all Type II restriction endonucleases, it is a dimer and the recognition site is palindromic and 6 bases in length.

Detailed explanation-4: -SmaI is an example of a restriction enzyme that cuts straight through the DNA strands, creating DNA fragments with a flat or blunt end. Other restriction enzymes, like EcoRI, cut through the DNA strands at nucleotides that are not exactly opposite each other.

Detailed explanation-5: -Restriction Enzyme Cut Site: G/GATCC.
