Silencing of end-joining repair for efficient site-specific gene insertion after TALEN/CRISPR mutagenesis in Aedes aegypti.
Conventional control strategies for mosquito-borne pathogens such as malaria and dengue are now being complemented by the development of transgenic mosquito strains reprogrammed to generate beneficial phenotypes such as conditional sterility or pathogen resistance. The widespread success of site-specific nucleases such as transcription activator-like effector nucleases (TALENs) and clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/Cas9 in model organisms also suggests that reprogrammable gene drive systems based on these nucleases may be capable of spreading such beneficial phenotypes in wild mosquito populations. Using the mosquito Aedes aegypti, we determined that mutations in the FokI domain used in TALENs to generate obligate heterodimeric complexes substantially and significantly reduce gene editing rates. We found that CRISPR/Cas9-based editing in the mosquito Ae. aegypti is also highly variable, with the majority of guide RNAs unable to generate detectable editing. By first evaluating candidate guide RNAs using a transient embryo assay, we were able to rapidly identify highly effective guide RNAs; focusing germ line-based experiments only on this cohort resulted in consistently high editing rates of 24-90%. Microinjection of double-stranded RNAs targeting ku70 or lig4, both essential components of the end-joining response, increased recombination-based repair in early embryos as determined by plasmid-based reporters. RNAi-based suppression of Ku70 concurrent with embryonic microinjection of site-specific nucleases yielded consistent gene insertion frequencies of 2-3%, similar to traditional transposon- or ΦC31-based integration methods but without the requirement for an initial docking step. These studies should greatly accelerate investigations into mosquito biology, streamline development of transgenic strains for field releases, and simplify the evaluation of novel Cas9-based gene drive systems.

CRISPR-Cas9: a promising tool for gene editing on induced pluripotent stem cells.
Recent advances in genome editing with programmable nucleases have opened up new avenues for multiple applications, from basic research to clinical therapy. The ease of use of the technology-and particularly clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-will allow us to improve our understanding of genomic variation in disease processes via cellular and animal models. Here, we highlight the progress made in correcting gene mutations in monogenic hereditary disorders and discuss various CRISPR-associated applications, such as cancer research, synthetic biology, and gene therapy using induced pluripotent stem cells. The challenges, ethical issues, and future prospects of CRISPR-based systems for human research are also discussed.

Advances in Off-Target Detection for CRISPR-Based Genome Editing.
The CRISPR (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats)-based genome editing system exhibits marked potential for both gene editing and gene therapy, and its continuous improvement contributes to its great clinical potential. However, the largest hindrance to its application in clinical practice is the presence of off-target effects (OTEs). Thus, in addition to continuous optimization of the CRISPR system to reduce and eventually eliminate OTEs, further development of unbiased genome-wide detection of OTEs is key for its successful clinical application. This article summarizes detection strategies for OTEs of different CRISPR systems, to provide detailed guidance for the detection of OTEs in CRISPR-based genome editing.

CRISPR/Cas9: Nature's gift to prokaryotes and an auspicious tool in genome editing.
Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) is a family of DNA direct repeats found in many prokaryotic genomes. It was discovered in bacteria as their (adaptive) immune system against invading viruses. Cas9 is an endonuclease enzyme linked with the CRISPR system in bacteria. Bacteria use the Cas9 enzyme to chop viral DNA sequences by unwinding it and then finding the complementary base pairs to the guide RNA. CRISPR/Cas9 is a modern and powerful molecular biology approach that is widely used in genome engineering (to activate/repress gene expression). It can be used in vivo to cause targeted genome modifications with better efficiency as compared to meganucleases, zinc-finger nucleases and transcription activator-like effector nucleases. CRISPR/Cas9 is a simple, reliable, and rapid method for causing gene alterations that open new horizons of gene editing in a variety of living organisms, including humans, for the treatment of several diseases. In this short review, we explored the basic mechanisms underlying its working principles along with some of its current applications in a number of diverse fields.

Improvements in the genetic editing technologies: CRISPR-Cas and beyond.
Gene editing is a great hope not only for the scientific community, but also for society in general. This is due to its potential therapeutic applications that would allow curing diseases of genetic origin. The first realistic approach to achieve this goal was the development of CRISPR (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats) tools. This review deals with some of the improvements that have been designed to obtain more efficient and safer genome editing. Initial CRISPR-Cas (CRISPR associated) editing systems yield low efficiency and undesired editing products. To solve these problems, new approaches emerged, such as the creation of base editors. Recent discoveries have led to the development of many interesting alternatives, such as the CRISPR-associated transposable systems, which open the range by generating guided insertions, or the discovery of other programmable nucleases like the IscB family, which greatly increase the range of proteins available for editing uses. Also, to address the limitations of base editors, prime editors were created; this novel system, despite having some disadvantages compared to base editor systems, has the potential to generate all the possible point mutations. On the other hand, dual prime editing systems (like twin and homologous 3' extension-mediated prime editors) have been developed to create targeted insertions and enhance the editing outcomes, respectively. Furthermore, advances in gene editing do not reside solely in CRISPR-dependent systems, as we will discuss when treating the Replication Interrupted Template-Driven DNA Modification technique.

Multigeneration analysis reveals the inheritance, specificity, and patterns of CRISPR/Cas-induced gene modifications in Arabidopsis.
The CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat)/Cas (CRISPR-associated) system has emerged as a powerful tool for targeted gene editing in many organisms, including plants. However, all of the reported studies in plants focused on either transient systems or the first generation after the CRISPR/Cas system was stably transformed into plants. In this study we examined several plant generations with seven genes at 12 different target sites to determine the patterns, efficiency, specificity, and heritability of CRISPR/Cas-induced gene mutations or corrections in Arabidopsis. The proportion of plants bearing any mutations (chimeric, heterozygous, biallelic, or homozygous) was 71.2% at T1, 58.3% at T2, and 79.4% at T3 generations. CRISPR/Cas-induced mutations were predominantly 1 bp insertion and short deletions. Gene modifications detected in T1 plants occurred mostly in somatic cells, and consequently there were no T1 plants that were homozygous for a gene modification event. In contrast, ∼22% of T2 plants were found to be homozygous for a modified gene. All homozygotes were stable to the next generation, without any new modifications at the target sites. There was no indication of any off-target mutations by examining the target sites and sequences highly homologous to the target sites and by in-depth whole-genome sequencing. Together our results show that the CRISPR/Cas system is a useful tool for generating versatile and heritable modifications specifically at target genes in plants.

Progress on CRISPR-Cas gene editing technology in sheep production.
Gene editing is a kind of genetic engineering technology that can modify the genome. In recent years, with the rapid development of molecular biotechnology, the clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats associated protein system has been widely used as a powerful gene editing tool due to its high efficiency, accuracy and flexibility. The CRISPR-Cas system makes a significant contribution to different aspects of livestock production by introducing site-specific modifications such as insertions, deletions or single base replacements at specific genomic sites. In terms of sheep production applications, by establishing animal models that improve production economic traits and disease resistance, the function of key genes can be studied to accelerate the improvement of traits, thereby accelerating the improvement of traits. In this review, we summarize the mechanism and function of CRISPR-Cas system and its application in the production of reproductive traits, meat use traits, wool production traits, lactation traits and disease resistance traits of sheep and the establishment of sheep animal models.

Introduction of mutations in plants with prime editing.
The emergence of a clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats/CRISPR-associated proteins (CRISPR/Cas) system has had a revolutionary impact on plant biology. However, this system and further developed base editing are limited by their inherent imperfection. Prime editing, a just arrival technology based on CRISPR/Cas, can directly and precisely edit a specified DNA site without double strand breaks and donor DNA by integrating an engineered reverse transcriptase (RT) with a catalytically impaired Cas9 endonuclease and introducing genetic information into prime editing guide RNA (pegRNA). In addition, it has a wider range of editing types than base editing and can install all types of editing theoretically. Prime editing was originally developed in mammalian cells and has recently been applied to plants. Here, we describe the origin of prime editing and compare it with traditional CRISPR/Cas9 and base editing; then, we exemplify it in plants, including strategies and methods. Accordingly, we generate the overall procedures of prime editing to provide instructions for its application. Furthermore, we summarize its improvements in the approach, such as optimizing the length of a primer binding site and RT template, as well as pursuing an optimal nicking site in the unedited sequence. Finally, we discuss the potential impact on domestication and improvement of agricultural crops, sustainable utilization of medicinal plants, cultivation of varieties of horticultural plants, and revelation of the genetic code, in order to offer a reference for the further study and development of prime editing.

Gene Editing With TALEN and CRISPR/Cas in Rice.
Engineered, site-specific nucleases induce genomic double-strand DNA breaks and break repair processes enable genome editing in a plethora of eukaryotic genomes. TALENs (transcription activator-like effector nucleases) and CRISPR/Cas (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats and CRISPR-associated proteins) are potent biotechnological tools used for genome editing. In rice, species-tailored editing tools have proven to be efficient and easy to use. Both tools are capable of generating DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) in vivo and such breaks can be repaired either by error-prone NHEJ (nonhomologous end joining) that leads to nucleotide insertions or deletions or by HDR (homology-directed repair) if an appropriate exogenous DNA template is provided. NHEJ repair often results in gene knockout, while HDR results in precise nucleotide sequence or gene replacement. In this review, we revisit the molecular mechanisms underlying DSB repair in eukaryotes and review the TALEN and CRISPR technologies (CRISPR/Cas9, CRISPR/Cpf1, and Base Editor) developed and utilized for genome editing by scientists in rice community.
