Restriction enzymes work on DNA, not proteins.

a) restriction enzymes work on DNA not protein
b) electrophoresis and not electrolysis is the method to analyse macromolecules.
Given the absurd question, here is an absurd answer.
You should incubate at -10 C for 1 year 2 months 1 day 2 hours 3 min and 44 sec with 5 units of T4 ligase. Caution do not allow the reaction to exceed the 44 sec limit or the proteins will be completely degraded.

Pseduo is absolutely right. Restriction enzymes recognize specific DNA sequences and cut so they wouldn't do anything to a protein. There are enzymes you could use to cut proteins, such as trypsin and then you could run the protein on an electrophoresis protein gel.
