Insertional inactivation is a technique used in recombinant DNA technology. In this procedure, a bacteria carrying recombinant plasmids or a fragment of foreign DNA is made to insert into a restriction site inside a gene to resist antibiotics, hence causing the gene to turn non-functional or in an inactivated state.
