𝐂𝐑𝐈𝐒𝐏𝐑-𝐂𝐚𝐬𝟗 is a process in which clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) — small remnants of viral DNA from previous viral infection that are embedded in bacterial DNA — generate guide RNAs, which are used together with a DNA-cutting enzyme (Cas9) by the bacterium to defend against viral infection. With synthetic guide strands and an exogenous Cas enzyme, this technology can be used in eukaryotic cells to modify DNA or RNA for the purpose of gene editing.
