Caution required for handling genome editing technology.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Genome-editing technology, although a robust tool for genetic engineering, is creating indistinct regulatory boundaries between naturally occurring and modified organisms. However, researchers must act with caution in research and development to avoid misleading society. Furthermore, appropriate regulations should be proactively discussed and established for handling genome-editing technology.

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...
متن کاملGenome editing of crops: A renewed opportunity for food security
Genome editing of crop plants is a rapidly advancing technology whereby targeted mutations can be introduced into a plant genome in a highly specific manner and with great precision. For the most part, the technology does not incorporate transgenic modifications and is far superior to conventional chemical mutagenesis. In this study we bring into focus some of the underlying differences between...
