Genome engineering has always been a versatile technique in biological research and medicine, with several applications. In the last several years, the discovery of Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR)-Cas9 technology has swept the scientific community and revolutionised the speed of modern biology, heralding a new era of disease detection and rapid biotechnology discoveries. It enables successful gene editing by producing targeted double-strand breaks in virtually any organism or cell type. So, this review presents a comprehensive knowledge about the mechanism and structure of Cas9-mediated RNA-guided DNA targeting and cleavage. In addition, genome editing via CRISPR-Cas9 technology in various animals which are being used as models in scientific research including Non-Human Primates Pigs, Dogs, Zebra, fish and Drosophila has been discussed in this review. This review also aims to understand the applications, serious concerns and future perspective of CRISPR/Cas9-mediated genome editing.
基因组工程一直是生物学研究和医学中的一种多功能技术,有多种应用。在过去的几年中,CRISPR-Cas9 技术的发现席卷了科学界,彻底改变了现代生物学的速度,开创了疾病检测和快速生物技术发现的新时代。它通过在几乎任何生物体或细胞类型中产生靶向双链断裂,实现了成功的基因编辑。因此,本综述全面介绍了 Cas9 介导的 RNA 指导的 DNA 靶向和切割的机制和结构。此外,本文还讨论了 CRISPR-Cas9 技术在各种作为科学研究模型的动物中的基因组编辑,包括非人类灵长类动物、猪、狗、斑马鱼和果蝇。本综述还旨在了解 CRISPR/Cas9 介导的基因组编辑的应用、严重关切和未来展望。
