Genome Editing by <scp>CRISPR</scp>/Cas9: A Game Change in the Genetic Manipulation of Protists
17 Jun 2016
Abstract excerpt
Genome editing by CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats)/Cas9 (CRISPR-associated gene 9) system has been transformative in biology. Originally discovered as an adaptive prokaryotic immune system, CRISPR/Cas9 has been repurposed for genome editing in a broad range of model organisms, from yeast to mammalian cells. Protist parasites are unicellular organisms producing important human...
