Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats and Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats-Associated Protein 9 System: Factors Affecting Precision Gene Editing Efficiency and Optimization Strategies.
The clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR)-CRISPR-associated (Cas) system is a powerful genomic DNA editing tool. The increased applications of gene editing tools, including the CRISPR-Cas system, have contributed to recent advances in biological fields, such as genetic disease therapy, disease-associated gene screening and detection, and cancer therapy. However, the major limiting factor for the wide application of gene editing tools is gene editing efficiency. This review summarizes the recent advances in factors affecting the gene editing efficiency of the CRISPR-Cas9 system and the CRISPR-Cas9 system optimization strategies. The homology-directed repair efficiency-related signal pathways and the form and delivery method of the CRISPR-Cas9 system are the major factors that influence the repair efficiency of gene editing tools. Based on these influencing factors, several strategies have been developed to improve the repair efficiency of gene editing tools. This review provides novel insights for improving the repair efficiency of the CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing system, which may enable the development and improvement of gene editing tools.

CRISPR/Cas9 Genome Editing in Caenorhabditis elegans: Evaluation of Templates for Homology-Mediated Repair and Knock-Ins by Homology-Independent DNA Repair.
Precise genome editing by the Cas9 nuclease depends on exogenously provided templates for homologous recombination. Here, we compare oligonucleotides with short homology and circular DNA molecules with extensive homology to genomic targets as templates for homology-based repair of CRISPR/Cas9 induced double-strand breaks. We find oligonucleotides to be templates of choice for introducing small sequence changes into the genome based on editing efficiency and ease of use. We show that polarity of oligonucleotide templates greatly affects repair efficiency: oligonucleotides in the sense orientation with respect to the target gene are better templates. In addition, combining a gene loss-of-function phenotype screen with detection of integrated fluorescent markers, we demonstrate that targeted knock-ins in Caenorhabditis elegans also can be achieved by homology-independent repair.

Effect of Cas9 Protein on the Seed-Target Base Pair of the sgRNA/DNA Hybrid Duplex.
CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats)/CRISPR-associated protein (Cas9) has been widely used for gene editing. Not all guide RNAs can cleave the DNA efficiently remains a major challenge to CRISPR/Cas9-mediated genome engineering. Therefore, understanding how the Cas9 complex successfully and efficiently identifies specific functional targets through base-pairing has great implications for such applications. The 10-nt seed sequence at the 3' end of the guide RNA is critical to target recognition and cleavage. Here, through stretching molecular dynamics simulation, we studied the thermodynamics and kinetics of the binding-dissociation process of the seed base and the target DNA base with the Cas9 protein. The results showed that in the presence of Cas9 protein, the enthalpy change and entropy change in binding-dissociation of the seed base with the target are smaller than those without the Cas9 protein. The reduction of entropy penalty upon association with the protein resulted from the pre-organization of the seed base in an A-form helix, and the reduction of enthalpy change was due to the electrostatic attraction of the positively charged channel with the negative target DNA. The binding barrier coming from the entropy loss and the dissociation barrier resulting from the destruction of the base pair in the presence of Cas9 protein were lower than those without protein, which indicates that the seed region is crucial for efficiently searching the correct target by accelerating the binding rate and dissociating fast from the wrong target.

Nanoengineering Systems for Gene Therapy: Mechanisms, Modalities, and Future Directions.
Nanotechnology has become an important platform in the fields of gene therapy and genome editing, providing delivery strategies that address persistent therapeutic challenges by improving the precision, efficiency, and safety of genetic modifications. This review highlights the central role of nanomaterials in overcoming persistent barriers to genetic interventions, including inefficient delivery, instability of genetic cargo, and off-target effects. Specifically, we emphasize the combined use of nanomaterials with clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats and CRISPR-associated proteins (CRISPR-Cas) systems, which can improve editing specificity and therapeutic efficacy. Beyond the classical CRISPR/Cas9 platform, this review also discusses next-generation modalities such as base editors, Cas13, prime editing, and the recently described Tandem Interspaced Guide RNA and TIGR-associated protein (TIGR-Tas) system, while considering their therapeutic potential and distinct delivery challenges. By using nanomaterials, the stability and intracellular delivery of genome-editing systems are improved, enabling more effective treatments for genetic disorders and acquired diseases such as cancer and infectious diseases. In addition, nanocarriers provide controlled release, protection from degradation, and better biocompatibility, thereby improving the safety and reliability of gene-editing therapies. Despite these advances, important translational challenges remain, including immunotoxicity, large-scale manufacturing, and regulatory integration. Overall, the continued convergence of nanotechnology and genome engineering may support the development of personalized medicine strategies that adapt genetic engineering tools for patient-specific applications.

Personalized therapeutic strategies for patients with retinitis pigmentosa.
INTRODUCTION: Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) encompasses many different hereditary retinal degenerations that are caused by a vast array of different gene mutations and have highly variable disease presentations and severities. This heterogeneity poses a significant therapeutic challenge, although an answer may eventually be found through two recent innovations: induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/Cas genome editing. AREAS COVERED: This review discusses the wide-ranging applications of iPSCs and CRISPR-including disease modelling, diagnostics and therapeutics - with an ultimate view towards understanding how these two technologies can come together to address disease heterogeneity and orphan genes in a novel personalized medicine platform. An extensive literature search was conducted in PubMed and Google Scholar, with a particular focus on high-impact research published within the last 1 - 2 years and centered broadly on the subjects of retinal gene therapy, iPSC-derived outer retina cells, stem cell transplantation and CRISPR/Cas gene editing. EXPERT OPINION: For the retinal pigment epithelium, autologous transplantation of gene-corrected grafts derived from iPSCs may well be technically feasible in the near future. Photoreceptor transplantation faces more significant unresolved technical challenges but remains an achievable, if more distant, goal given the rapid pace of advancements in the field.

Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats as an advanced treatment for Parkinson's disease.
Recently, genome-editing technology like clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/Cas9 has improved the translational gap in the treatments mediated through gene therapy. The advantages of the CRISPR system, such as, work in the living cells and tissues, candidate this technique for the employing in experiments and the therapy of central nervous system diseases. Parkinson's disease (PD) is a widespread, disabling, neurodegenerative disease induced by dopaminergic neuron loss and linked to progressive motor impairment. Pathophysiological basis knowledge of PD has modified the PD classification model and expresses in the sporadic and familial types. Analyses of the earliest genetic linkage have shown in PD the inclusion of synuclein alpha (SNCA) genomic duplication and SNCA mutations in the familial types of PD pathogenesis. This review analyzes the structure, development, and function in genome editing regulated through the CRISPR/Cas9. Also, it explains the genes associated with PD pathogenesis and the appropriate modifications to favor PD. This study follows the direction by understanding the PD linking analyses in which the CRISPR technique is applied. Finally, this study explains the limitations and future trends of CRISPR service in relation to the genome-editing process in PD patients' induced pluripotent stem cells.

Genome editing using preassembled CRISPR-Cas9 ribonucleoprotein complexes in Fusarium graminearum.
Genome editing using the clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-CRISPR-associated protein 9 (Cas9) system has greatly facilitated the genetic analysis of fungal pathogens. The head blight fungus, Fusarium graminearum, causes destructive losses of economically important cereal crops. The recent development of the CRISPR-Cas9 system for use with F. graminearum has enabled more efficient genome editing. In this study, we described a CRISPR-Cas9-based genome-editing tool for the direct delivery of preassembled Cas9 ribonucleoproteins (RNPs) into the protoplasts of F. graminearum. The use of RNPs significantly increased both the number of transformants and percentage of transformants in which the target gene was successfully replaced with a selectable marker. We showed that a single double-strand DNA break mediated by the Cas9 ribonucleoprotein was sufficient for gene deletion. In addition, short-homology recombination required only 50 base pair regions flanking the target gene. The high efficiency of Cas9 RNPs enables large-scale functional analysis, the identification of essential genes, and gene deletion that is difficult with conventional methods. We expect that our approach will accelerate genetic studies of F. graminearum.

Using CRISPR/Cas in three dimensions: towards synthetic plant genomes, transcriptomes and epigenomes.
It is possible to target individual sequence motives within genomes by using synthetic DNA-binding domains. This one-dimensional approach has been used successfully in plants to induce mutations or for the transcriptional regulation of single genes. When the CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats)/Cas9 system was discovered, a tool became available allowing the extension of this approach from one to three dimensions and to construct at least partly synthetic entities on the genome, epigenome and transcriptome levels. The second dimension can be obtained by targeting the Cas9 protein to multiple unique genomic sites by applying multiple different single guiding (sg) RNAs, each defining a different DNA-binding site. Finally, the simultaneous use of phylogenetically different Cas9 proteins or sgRNAs that harbour different types of protein binding motives, allows for a third dimension of control. Thus, different types of enzyme activities - fused either to one type of Cas9 orthologue or to one type of RNA-binding domain specific to one type of sgRNA - can be targeted to multiple different genomic sites simultaneously. Thus, it should be possible to induce quantitatively different levels of expression of certain sets of genes and at the same time to repress other genes, redefining the nuclear transcriptome. Likewise, by the use of different types of histone-modifying and/or DNA (de)methylating activities, the epigenome of plants should be reprogrammable. On our way to synthetic plant genomes, the next steps will be to use complex genome engineering approaches within or between species borders to restructure and recombine natural or artificial chromosomes.
