Abstract:CISPR/Cas9 system is a natural immune mechanism adopted by bacteria and archaea on exposure to invading phages and plasmids. The field of genome editing has been revolutionized with the advent of CRISPR/Cas9 technology. The CRISPR/Cas9 based gene editing has offered a promising therapeutic platform for many animal and human diseases, particularly viral diseases because viruses evolve constantly and hence escape vaccine-induced immunity. The targeted genome editing by RNA-guided nucleases is rapid, easy, econom… Show more
