CAS9 is a genome mutator by directly disrupting DNA-PK dependent DNA repair pathway. [PDF]
With its high efficiency for site-specific genome editing and easy manipulation, the clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/ CRISPR associated protein 9 (CAS9) system has become the most widely used gene editing technology in ...

Gene editing and gene regulation with CRISPR [PDF]
Genome editing enables precise changes to be made in the genome of living cells. The technique was originally developed in the 1980’s but largely limited to use in mice. The discovery that a targeted double stranded break (DSB) at a unique site in the genome, close to the site to be changed, could substantially increase the efficiency of editing ...

CRISPR-Cas9 Gene Editing for Sickle Cell Disease and β-Thalassemia.
Transfusion-dependent β-thalassemia (TDT) and sickle cell disease (SCD) are severe monogenic diseases with severe and potentially life-threatening manifestations. BCL11A is a transcription factor that represses γ-globin expression and fetal hemoglobin in

Applications and challenges of CRISPR-Cas gene-editing to disease treatment in clinics
Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-associated systems (Cas) are efficient tools for targeting specific genes for laboratory research, agricultural engineering, biotechnology, and human disease treatment.

HIV-1 and HTLV-1 Transmission Modes: Mechanisms and Importance for Virus Spread
So far, only two retroviruses, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) (type 1 and 2) and human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1), have been recognized as pathogenic for humans. Both viruses mainly infect CD4+ T lymphocytes.

As we pursue clinical applications for CRISPR-directed gene editing in overcoming resistance to anticancer drugs, we have focused on genetic disruption of the transcription factor, NRF2, a master regulator of cellular stress and detoxification. The level

Development of the gene engineering techniques has raised worries that they will be used for construction of organism endangering humansand environment. In 1975 at the Asilomar conference, geneticists from many countries decided that genetic engineering brings more benefitsthan threats. In last years a new CRISPR-Cas technique emerged .
