The latest tool in genome editing-CRISPR/Cas9- allows for specific genome disruption and replacement in a flexible and simple system resulting in high specificity and low cell toxicity. It is analogous to the TALEN DNA nuclease system and can be used to induce mutations at targeted regions in a model organism's genome.It is clear that the CRISPR/Cas system will be widely developed and used as a targeted mutation system in human cells and in mice/rat .... >> MORE
