Curbing Malaria: A New Hope through Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR) Technology
The term genome refers to the total genetic composition of an organism or species. The normal genes transcribe and translate into functional gene products, which in turn bring about a normal phenotype. Genomics, the study of genomes has revealed the significant level of diversity in the human genome attributed not only to single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) but structural variations as well....
متن کاملCRISPRcompar: a website to compare clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats
Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR) elements are a particular family of tandem repeats present in prokaryotic genomes, in almost all archaea and in about half of bacteria, and which participate in a mechanism of acquired resistance against phages. They consist in a succession of direct repeats (DR) of 24-47 bp separated by similar sized unique sequences (spacers). ...
متن کاملEmerging ethical perspectives in the clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats genome-editing debate
This paper provides an overview of the ethical issues in the international clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) genome editing debate from March 2015 to September 2016. We present the regulatory framework for embryo research in the UK, and explain why CRISPR is not a significant break with the past. We discuss the ethical issues arising from CRISPR applications bey...
متن کاملCRISPRFinder: a web tool to identify clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats
Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPRs) constitute a particular family of tandem repeats found in a wide range of prokaryotic genomes (half of eubacteria and almost all archaea). They consist of a succession of highly conserved regions (DR) varying in size from 23 to 47 bp, separated by similarly sized unique sequences (spacer) of usually viral origin. A CRISPR clust...
متن کاملNon-classical phase diagram for virus bacterial coevolution mediated by clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats.
CRISPR is a newly discovered prokaryotic immune system. Bacteria and archaea with this system incorporate genetic material from invading viruses into their genomes, providing protection against future infection by similar viruses. The condition for coexistence of prokaryots and viruses is an interesting problem in evolutionary biology. In this work, we show an intriguing phase diagram of the vi...
