The Restriction enzymes are used in Recombinant DNA technology to produce enzymes by using genetic engineering.

Explanation: By using rDNA technology desired proteins or enzymes can be obtained. The desired DNA fragments are cleaved using Restriction enzymes and inserted into Bacterial Plasmid of the bacteria (vector), these are replicated inside the bacteria, and the desired product is obtained from this molecular cloning technique.
