- CRISPR - Wikipedia
Each sequence within an individual prokaryotic CRISPR is derived from a DNA fragment of a bacteriophage that had previously infected the prokaryote or one of its ancestors [4][5] These sequences are used to detect and destroy DNA from similar bacteriophages during subsequent infections

But CRISPR molecules have become highly promising as treatments because they allow us to precisely modify a piece of DNA in the human body This could lead not only to relief but also to a cure
- What Is CRISPR? - National Institute of General Medical Sciences
CRISPR gene editing has many possible applications in research and medicine Researchers can inactivate a specific protein to learn about its role in a certain cellular process, such as aging or cancer development, in a variety of cell types or research organisms, like yeast or zebrafish

CRISPR (short for “clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats”) is a technology that research scientists use to selectively modify the DNA of living organisms CRISPR was adapted for use in the laboratory from naturally occurring genome editing systems found in bacteria
- CRISPR | Definition, Gene Editing, Technology, Uses, Ethics - Britannica
CRISPR, short palindromic repeating sequences of DNA, found in most bacterial genomes, that are interrupted by so-called spacer elements, or spacers—sequences of genetic code derived from the genomes of previously encountered bacterial pathogens

To fully understand CRISPR, it is essential to grasp the biology behind it CRISPR is an acronym for “Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats ” It sounds complex, but the concept is relatively simple once broken down CRISPR is part of the immune system in bacteria

What is CRISPR? CRISPR (short for "clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats") is a natural defense mechanism found in bacteria that helps them fight off viruses When a bacterium survives a viral infection, it stores a snippet of the virus's DNA in its own genome
