CRISPR-based rapid and ultra-sensitive diagnostic test for Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Abstract: Rapid and simple-to-use diagnostic methods for tuberculosis are urgently needed. Recent development has unveiled the diagnostic power of the CRISPR system in the detection of viral infections. However, its potential use in detecting the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTB) remained unexplored. We developed a rapid CRISPR-based assay for TB detection and conducted a retrospective cohort study of 179 patients to evaluate the CRISPR-MTB test for identifying MTB in various forms of direct clinical samples. Its… Show more

“…Also, we demonstrated that the CRISPR-Cas12a platform could detect the KPC gene encoded by a K. pneumoniae isolate even in complex samples such as blood, emulating a clinical sample. In this line, the potential of the Cas12a effector to detect targets in patient samples has been recently demonstrated by other authors [21].…”

“…Cas9 is also used in cellular models to study for the treatment and diagnosis of polygenic diseases such as diabetes and autism due to multiplexing properties [24]. CRISPR/Cas biotechnology is now expansively and broadly applied across numerous disciplines, including basic sciences, food/crop development, fuel generation, drug development, human genome engineering and gene editing technology against novel diseases like coronavirus (COVID-19 or SARS-CoV2) [8,14,19,22,25,26].…”
