Step 2 of gene cloning: The actions of a restriction enzyme and DNA ligase to produce a recombinant

Tags
Description
The restriction enzyme binds to a specific sequence in both the chromosomal and the vector DNA. It then cleaves the DNA backbones, producing DNA fragments. The complementary single-stranded ends of the DNA fragments hydrogen bond with each other. The enzyme DNA ligase then covalently links these fragments, producing a recombinant vector.
