Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

ARS stands for "autonomously replicating sequence," which refers to the origin of replication on a DNA molecule that enables it to replicate independently.

Answer: E 
 While some endonucleases may recognize and cleave at a specific sequence or site, the term "ARS" specifically refers to an endonuclease isolated from bacteria that recognizes and cleaves at certain DNA sequences, thus allowing for genetic engineering and other applications.
