Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Microinjection is a technique used to introduce DNA directly into the cell nucleus. This is done using a fine needle to penetrate the cell membrane and inject the DNA. Other molecules such as mRNAs or proteins can also be introduced using microinjection, but the most common application is for introducing DNA into cells. Mitochondria and phagosomes are not typically targeted for microinjection.
