Market Fundamentals
CRISPR stands for Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats. CRISPR technology is a powerful tool used for editing genomes. Cas9 protein also known as CRISPR-associated protein acts as a molecular scissor that can be used for cutting DNA strands. CRISPR helps researchers to easily alter DNA sequences and modify gene function. It can also be used to turn a gene on and off without altering the sequence. CRISPR-Cas9 was adapted from a naturally occurring genome editing system that takes place in archaea and bacteria.
There are many potential applications of CRISPR such as correcting genetic defects, improving crops, and preventing and treating the spread of disease. Several studies are going on using CRISPR technology for treating diseases such as cancer, blood disorders, treat genetic blindness, HIV, cystic fibrosis, and Duchenne"s muscular dystrophy, among others. CRISPR can also be used to genetically modify foods or crops to improve their nutritional value, make them pest-resistant and increase their shelf life. Most of the ongoing studies using CRISPR are conducted on mouse and human cells.
