It is useful to use restriction enzymes in rDNA experiments that produce sticky ends in the resultant fragments because:

1.  it allows a cell to recognize fragments produced by the enzyme
2.  the single-stranded ends serve as starting points for DNA replication
3.  the fragments will bond to other fragments with complementary single-stranded ends
4.  only single-stranded DNA segments can code for proteins
