The Reasons for Using Transposon- Based Mutagenesis Include All of the Following

Question

The reasons for using transposon- based mutagenesis include all of the following EXCEPT________ .
A) likely to cause only minimal effects on gene function
B) mutations are often 'tagged' by the nearby transposon
C) antibiotic selection can be employed during mutagenesis.
D) dramatic mutations which often cause null alleles
E) transposons are found in nearly all organisms

Accepted Answer

Transposon-based mutagenesis typically causes significant disruptions in gene function, often resulting in dramatic mutations or null alleles, rather than minimal effects.
