CRISPR-Cas9: Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats are segments of prokaryotic DNA containing short, repetitive base sequences. These play a key role in a bacterial defence system,and form the basis of a genome editing technology known as CRISPR/Cas9 that allows permanent modification of genes within organisms. The CRISPR/Cas system is a prokaryotic immune system that confers resistance to foreign genetic elements such as those present within plasmids and phages that provides a form of acquired immunity. It is a unique technology that enables geneticists and medical researchers to edit parts of the genome by removing, adding or altering sections of the DNA sequence.
The manipulation of the genome to study disease, evaluate drug targets and to stratify patient populations is now a widely accepted concept in the field. At Horizon Discovery, genome engineer...
