Assertion: Zinc-finger nucleases (ZFNs) are artificial restriction enzymes. Reason: The DNA-binding domains of individual ZFNs are typically contained between nine and eighteen individual zinc finger repeats.
Directions: In the following question, there are two statements, Assertion (A) and Reason (R). Consider both the statements independently and mark your answer as under:
1. A and R both are correct and R is the correct explanation of A.
2. A and R both are correct and R is not the correct explanation of A.
3. A is correct and R is incorrect.
4. A is incorrect and R is correct.
5. A and R both are incorrect.
