How to insert GFP gene in a genomic DNA of U-87 MG (glioblastome cell line)?

05 May 2014 0 4K Report

Is it possible to insert a GFP gene in gDNA of U87MG by replacing some other gene at that place? If, yes then which GFP vector should I use to transfect in U87MG? Kindly tell me detail procedure to do this experiment ?
