What is the advantage to using the CRISPR-Cas9 system compared to previous gene editing technologies? What are the advantages? Any drawbacks? What are the ethicals concerns that are raised with the use and application of this technology? What do you think of this technology?arrow_forwardCRISPR-Cas9 can be used by scientists to edit genes. This system was not created in a lab, however, but instead adapted from a system that already exists in nature. Describe the native biological function of CRISPR-Cas9.arrow_forward
- Genetically modified Atlantic salmon have recently been approved for human consumption. These genetically modified Atlantic salmon have a growth hormone gene from the Chinook salmon which allows them to grow to market size in double the time. This was possible because of CRISPR/Cas9 technology. From what you know about gene editing and CRISPR/Cas9, name 2 components of the technology that had to be introduced into the Atlantic salmon. Which method of DNA repair had to be used (non-homologous end joining or homology‐directed repair) to edit the Atlantic salmon genome?arrow_forwardHow must recessive and dominant mutations be treated differently, in theory, when correcting disease mutations with CRISPR-Cas?arrow_forwardWhat is the function of gRNA in CRISPR-Cas technologies?It cuts DNA at a targeted sequence and inserts a new sequence -.It cuts protein at a targeted sequence and inserts a new sequence.It ensures the Cas9 enzyme cuts at the correct place in the DNA.It ensures the Cas9 enzyme cuts at the correct place in the RNA.It replaces uracil nucleotides with thymine nucleotides.arrow_forward
- CRISPR-Cas9 provides an unprecedented means of modifying the genome of almost any organism. Which of the following component(s) of this system contribute to the specificity of the endonucleolytic cleavage Options: the sequence of the sgRNA the PAM sequence Cas9 a and b a, b and carrow_forwardHow does CRISPR work? (Not, "What is CRISPR?" although that is important to know, but how does it work?)arrow_forwardIf a researcher wanted to utilize CRISPR/Cas9 to target a gene of interest in their experimental system (i.e. Drosophila) which of the following would they customize for this purpose Group of answer choices Guiding region of sgRNA None of the above, CRISPR can only function in bacterial cells Cas9 enzyme Scaffold region of sgRNAarrow_forward
