PATHOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -CRISPR is simpler, faster, cheaper, and more accurate than older genome editing methods. Many scientists who perform genome editing now use CRISPR. Genome editing technologies enable scientists to make changes to DNA, leading to changes in physical traits, like eye color, and disease risk.

Detailed explanation-2: -The CRISPR-Cas9 system has generated a lot of excitement in the scientific community because it is faster, cheaper, more accurate, and more efficient than other genome editing methods. CRISPR-Cas9 was adapted from a naturally occurring genome editing system that bacteria use as an immune defense.

Detailed explanation-3: -CRISPR is much less labor intensive and cheaper than ZFN and TALENs, with an additional advantage that it can be used to target multiple loci simultaneously-or used to perform high-throughput, genome-wide functional screens.

Detailed explanation-4: -Disruptive CRISPR gene therapy is 150 times cheaper than zinc fingers and CRISPR is faster and more precise. Biologists have long been able to edit genomes with molecular tools. About ten years ago, they became excited by enzymes called zinc finger nucleases that promised to do this accurately and efficiently.

Detailed explanation-5: -CRISPR is a type of gene-editing technology that lets scientists more rapidly and accurately ‘cut’ and ‘paste’ genes into DNA. It is based on a targeted DNA-destroying defence system originally found in certain prokaryotes.
