Recent Advances in Genome Editing Using CRISPR/Cas9
The CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat)-Cas9 (CRISPR-associated nuclease 9) system is a versatile tool for genome engineering that uses a guide RNA (gRNA) to target Cas9 to a specific sequence. This simple RNA-guided genome-editing technology has become a revolutionary tool in biology and has many innovative applications in different fields. In this review, we brie...
متن کاملHarnessing Whole Genome Sequencing in Medical Mycology
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Comparative genome sequencing studies of human fungal pathogens enable identification of genes and variants associated with virulence and drug resistance. This review describes current approaches, resources, and advances in applying whole genome sequencing to study clinically important fungal pathogens. RECENT FINDINGS Genomes for some important fungal pathogens were only re...
متن کاملGenome Editing Tools in Plants
Genome editing tools have the potential to change the genomic architecture of a genome at precise locations, with desired accuracy. These tools have been efficiently used for trait discovery and for the generation of plants with high crop yields and resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses. Due to complex genomic architecture, it is challenging to edit all of the genes/genomes using a particul...
متن کاملRecent Advances in Hemophilia Gene Therapy
Heterogeneous loss of function mutations at F8 and F9 genes causes X-linked recessive bleeding disorders, hemophilia A (HA) and hemophilia B (HB), respectively. HA is clinically indistinguishable from HB and accounts for more than 80% of hemophilia cases; the former affects 1/5000 and the latter 1/25000 male births worldwide. In Iran, it is estimated that around 4300 HA and 900 HB patients are ...
متن کاملAdvances in Nucleases Used for Genome Editing
Genome editing is an exciting technology that allows for specific manipulation of complex genomes. While the original tools for genome manipulation had low efficiencies, genome editing tools discovered in the past fifteen years have been widely studied and great efforts have been required to improve their efficiency. This article summarizes how Zinc Finger Nuclease (ZFN), Transcription Activato...
