Question

Insertional inactivation is related to

• A. Microinjection
• B. Gene gun
• C. Gel electrophoresis
• D. Selection of recombinations

Answer 1

The correct option is D Selection of recombinations

Insertional inactivation is the inactivation of a gene upon insertion of another gene inside in its place or within its coding sequence. This helps the selection of transformant and as well as recombinant colonies in selective antibiotic medium aided due to insertional inactivation of the antibiotic gene which becomes inactive due to foreign gene insert within its sequence.

So, the correct option is Selection of recombination.
