🧬 CRISPR Technology: Revolutionizing Gene Editing in Biotechnology and Health Tech CRISPR (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats) is a groundbreaking gene-editing technology that allows scientists to precisely alter DNA in living organisms. Originally derived from a bacterial defense system, CRISPR has become one of the most transformative tools in biotechnology, medicine, and agriculture . 🧠 How CRISPR Works (Simplified) CRISPR uses two key components: Cas9 Enzyme Acts like molecular scissors to cut DNA at a specific location. Guide RNA (gRNA) Directs Cas9 to the exact DNA sequence that needs editing. Process: The gRNA binds to the target DNA. Cas9 cuts the DNA at the targeted site. The cell repairs the cut—this is where scientists can: Disable a gene (knockout), Correct a mutation (gene correction), or Insert new genetic material (gene knock-in). 🔬 Applications of CRISPR in Biotechnology & Health Tech 1.
