Check each of the true statements about the proteins involved in cutting and pasting DNA. More than one statement may be true.
1. DNA ligase pastes together segments of DNA with matching sticky ends. DNA ligase cuts DNA at specific locations called restriction sites.
2. A restriction enzyme cuts DNA while DNA ligase pastes DNA.
3. A restriction enzyme can cut DNA ligase at its restriction site.
4. A particular restriction enzyme only cuts DNA at one very specific DNA sequence.
5. A particular restriction enzyme cuts DNA at multiple sequences.

The statements which are true about proteins involved in the cutting and pasting of DNA are :

1. A restriction enzyme cuts DNA while DNA ligase pastes DNA.

2. A particular restriction enzyme only cuts DNA at one very specific DNA sequence.

3. DNA ligase pastes together segments of DNA with matching sticky ends.

While DNA ligase can bind or rejoin DNA fragments with complementary ends, restriction enzymes, which are naturally present in bacteria, can cut DNA fragments at particular sequences.
