THE FASCINATING WORLD OF CRISPR:REVOLUTIONIZING GENETIC ENGINEERING
THE FASCINATING WORLD OF CRISPR:REVOLUTIONIZING GENETIC ENGINEERING The field of biology has seen tremendous advancements over the past few decades,but few innovations have generated as much excitement potential as CRISPR Cas9.This revolutionary technology has transformed genetic engineering ,offering unprecedented precision and versatility in editing DNA.Lets delve into the latest developments and implications of CRISPR in biology. WHAT IS CRISPR-Cas9? CRISPR stands for clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats,is a natural defence mechanism found in bacteria.these organisms use this sequences to recognize and cut the DNA of invading viruses.scientist have harnessed this system,particularly the Cas9 protein,to create a powerful tool for editing genes in various organisms. RECENT BREAKTHROUGHS IN CRISPR TECHNOLOGY 1.BASE EDITING It is one of the most significant advancement in CRISPR technology.unlike traditional CRISPR ,which cuts the DNA ,base editors can ch
