CRISPR-Cas systems are prokaryotic immune systems that confer resistance to foreign genetic elements such as plasmids and phages. CRISPR-Cas systems have been exploited for targeted genome editing.
CAS is made up of 24 departments that serve over 7,000 undergraduate students, nearly 1,200 graduate students and over 800 associate in arts program students. Under the leadership of Dean Caleb ...
CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing exploits the CRISPR-Cas system to modify a genome in a targeted manner. Guided by RNA, the Cas9 endonuclease breaks DNA at a target sequence. Imprecise repair of the double ...
