In vitro mutagenesis is a technique to discover gene function by altering a cloned gene's sequence and studying the resulting mutant phenotype.
In vitro mutagenesis is a method for discovering gene function by altering a cloned gene's sequence, reintroducing it into a cell, and observing the resulting phenotypic changes.
