Making Recombinant DNA

Description
     A restriction enzyme recognizes a specific base sequence (orange boxes) in DNA from any source.

     The enzyme cuts DNA from two sources into fragments. This enzyme leaves sticky ends.

     When the DNA fragments from the
two sources are mixed together, matching sticky ends base-pair with each other.

      DNA ligase joins the base-paired DNA fragments. Molecules of recombinant DNA are the result.
