Bio Term Complementation is The ability of a gene to produce a functional gene product which compensates for the mutant phenotype caused by a mutation in another gene. Typically, the complementing gene produces a gene product (e.g. a repressor protein or an enzyme for synthesis of a metabolite) that is diffusible and thus functions in trans.
