DA: Yes, overhangs are the extra bits that the restriction enzyme leaves. The restriction enzymes given all recognized sequences that read the same on both strand 5-3 prime ends, so they always made a z cut. I asked you which way the z would go, which of the top and bottom would be longer, and the answer is: it depends on the enzyme. Thus the 3 and 5 and blunt end (equal) overhang differences. Yay. I learned something in Bio lab today. Go overhangs!!

yes, your. Ok, you win.

No, watch me fail. Just because it's an inane topic, doesn't mean there isn't studying to do. There are theorems and terms and shit. Watch me fail out of sheer disdain for the course.
