Question 5 of 5
5. Question
1 pointsConsider the following statements
1. Site-Directed Nuclease (SDN) genome editing involves the use of different RNA-cutting enzymes (nucleases)
2. All the SDN processes do not involve alien genetic material and the end result is indistinguishable from conventionally bred crop varieties
Select the correct statement(s)Correct
c) Neither 1 nor 2
Site-Directed Nuclease (SDN) genome editing involves the use of different DNA-cutting enzymes (nucleases) that are directed to cut the DNA at a predetermined location by a range of different DNA binding systems. After the cut is made, the cell’s own DNA repair mechanism recognizes the break and repairs the damage, using one of two pathways that are naturally present in cells. Hence, statement 1 is incorrect.
SDN 1 & SDN 2 processes do not involve alien genetic material and the end result is indistinguishable from conventionally bred crop varieties. The SDN3 process involves larger DNA elements or full length genes of foreign origin which makes it similar to Genetically modified organisms (GMO) development. Hence, statement 2 is incorrect.
