Yes, it is true that if you cut two sources of DNA with the same restriction enzyme, you can create compatible ends that allow them to be joined together to form recombinant DNA. The restriction enzyme creates specific cuts in the DNA, generating sticky or blunt ends that can anneal with each other. Once the DNA fragments are aligned, DNA ligase can be used to seal the nicks in the sugar-phosphate backbone, resulting in a stable recombinant DNA molecule. This technique is widely used in genetic engineering and biotechnology.
