Genetic Engineering : Essentials

Gene Editing by Crispr-Cas by Aarif Ali (Editor); Farheen Shafique (Editor) CRISPR-Cas systems have redefined the landscape of genetic engineering, offering an unprecedented level of precision, efficiency, and versatility in genome editing. This book, titled Gene Editing by CRISPR-Cas, provides a comprehensive and well-structured approach on the historical context of genetics and gene-editing techniques leading to the groundbreaking discovery of CRISPR-Cas systems.Distinguished by its multidisciplinary scope, this volume not only delves into CRISPR-Cas systems but also examines alternative and next-generation gene-editing technologies. The book aims to inform and engage both general audience with a keen interest in science and biology, and professionals and students in related fields. By offering a balanced blend of scientific explanations and real-world applications, the book seeks to empower readers to understand the potential of CRISPR technology and its impact across diverse domains, such as medicine, agriculture, biotechnology, and diagnostics, while addressing the ethical, regulatory, and biosafety considerations essential for responsible implementation.
