Answer 3

palindromes are things that are the same forward and backwards.
A word example: Racecar (RAC E CAR)

In genomics, palindromic sequences are generally stop codons or restriction enzyme sites, these are ones that when flipped do the same thing;
in E. coli, EcoR1 enzyme:

5': GAATTC
3': CTTAAG

When cut, it looks like this:
5'---G AATTC---3'
3'---CTTAA G---5'

so if you reed the 3' or 5' line you can see these are the same thing if they are flipped

Answer 4

thnks :)
