Find the palindrome in this restriction enzyme site: 5'-CTGCAG-3'?

A patient with impaired judgment, personality changes, signs of abnormal
body movements and depression comes to the physician's office for a follow-
up visit. The physician suspects a single-gene disorder may be the cause of
those clinical manifestations. A blood specimen was then sent to your clinical
laboratory for mutation screening in the Huntington gene. Testing with
standard PCR indicates that patient has Huntington Disease, HD. Which of the
following would be consistent with this diagnosis?
25 CAG repeats in the Huntington gene
85 CAG repeats in the Huntington gene
25 CGA repeats in the Huntington gene
85 CGA repeats in the Huntington gene

enzyme:
Ligase
Taq Polymerase
Primase
Helicase
Helicase
Mutation in what gene is associated with Fragile X syndrome?
FMR1
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is caused by what translocation?
t(11;14)
This polymerase is involved in "initiation of DNA replication and has primase
activity":
Pol α
Its discovery shed light on why there is simultaneous, though not continuous,
synthesis of DNA on both leading and lagging strands of DNA:
