Answer:

The enzyme you should use is DNA ligase

Explanation:

The first step for cloning is to cut the plasmid and paste the gene of interest inside. This process is dependent on the restriction enzymes and the enzyme DNA ligase, which is responsible for binding the DNA.

The enzyme DNA ligase catalyzes the attachment of the insert and the vector through a plasmid, with the formation of covalent bonds.
