A review on genome editing by CRISPR-Cas9 technique for cancer treatment [PDF]
In this review, we summarize CRISPR-Cas9 system-based gene modification for the therapeutic treatment of cancer. Cancer is a group of diseases involving anomalous cell growth with the potential to invade or blow out to other parts of the body, which is ...

Immunogenicity of Cas9 Protein [PDF]
Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) form the adaptive immune system in archaea and bacteria and have been modified for genome engineering in eukaryotic cells. CRISPR systems contain 2 components, a single-guide RNA, which is a short RNA composed of a 20 nucleotide sequence that targets specific sites in the genomic DNA ...

Gene Editing to Tackle Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy
Facioscapulohumeral dystrophy (FSHD) is a skeletal muscle disease caused by the aberrant expression of the DUX4 gene in the muscle tissue. To date, different therapeutic approaches have been proposed, targeting DUX4 at the DNA, RNA or protein levels. The

Entering the post-epigenomic age: back to epigenetics [PDF]
It is undeniably one of the greatest findings in biology that (with some very minor exceptions) every cell in the body possesses the whole genetic information needed to generate a complete individual.

Strategies in the delivery of Cas9 ribonucleoprotein for CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing
CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing has gained rapidly increasing attentions in recent years, however, the translation of this biotechnology into therapy has been hindered by efficient delivery of CRISPR/Cas9 materials into target cells. Direct delivery of CRISPR/Cas9 system as a ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complex consisting of Cas9 protein and single guide RNA ...

Identification and Evolution of Cas9 tracrRNAs [PDF]
Clustered regularly interspaced palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-associated (Cas)9 transactivating CRISPR RNAs (tracrRNAs) form distinct structures essential for target recognition and cleavage and dictate exchangeability between orthologous proteins. As noncoding RNAs that are often apart from the CRISPR array, their identification can be arduous. In this
