Abstract:CRISPR/Cas-based gene editing is an innovative biotechnology that has revolutionized genetic engineering in recent years. The process involves induction of a double-strand break (DSB) at the desired DNA site and subsequent cellular repair. Two primary mechanisms drive DSB repair: non-homologous end joining and homologous recombination-mediated repair. Non-homologous end joining, the primary mode of DSB repair, is a simple high-efficiency process that is susceptible to errors, and unpredictable nucleotide inser… Show more
