1. What is CRISPR?

CRISPR (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats) technology has fundamentally revolutionized the field of genetic engineering. Inspired by the natural adaptive defense mechanisms of bacteria against invading bacteriophage viruses, CRISPR allows scientists to precisely edit DNA with unprecedented accuracy, efficiency, and scale.

Mechanism of Action

CRISPR works by precisely targeting and cutting specific sequences of DNA with the help of a specialized endonuclease enzyme, like Cas9. This programmed cut can be clinically utilized to either cleanly disrupt a target gene's function (knockout) or introduce highly desired changes (knock-in) by providing a specific DNA template for homology-directed repair. The cell's natural repair mechanisms then permanently incorporate the desired changes, enabling precise gene editing.
