The speed and efficiency of the CRISPR/Cas system make it a potentially useful system for gene therapy. In this volume expert international authors provide a useful and timely review of the applications of the CRISPR/Cas system across diverse fields and explore further avenues and research directions of this novel and powerful editing technology. The technology and its application are reviewed with respect to reproduction and development, immunity and genetic diseases, system structure and system specificity. Some of the potential problems of the CRISPR/ Cas system are also discussed, in particular the specificity of the system: this remains an important topic as improvement could lead to the more direct and efficient use of the CRISPR/Cas system in clinical settings. The authors also debate ethical concerns associated with this powerful new technology. This volume is a rigorous review of the applications and new opportunities for the CRISPR/ Cas system and provides a stimulus for current and future research. An invaluable guide for all scientists working in the fields of genome editing and gene therapy the book is also recommended for all life sciences libraries. 588 0 Vendor-supplied metadata. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Genetic engineering.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85053855 650 0 Gene therapy.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85053738 650 0 Molecular genetics.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85086586 650 0 RNA editing.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh93000171 650 0 Prokaryotes.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85107388 650 0 Genetics|xTechnique.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85053881 650 7 Genetic engineering.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 940027 650 7 Gene therapy.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/939638 650 7 Molecular genetics.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1024797 650 7 RNA editing.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1086255 650 7 SCIENCE|xChemistry|xIndustrial & Technical.|2bisacsh 650 7 Prokaryotes.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1078852 650 7 SCIENCE|xLife Sciences|xGenetics & Genomics.|2bisacsh 650 7 Genetics|xTechnique.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 940145 650 7 TECHNOLOGY & ENGINEERING|xChemical & Biochemical.|2bisacsh 655 4 Electronic books. 700 1 Jamal, Muhammad,|d1991-|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/n2017188140|eeditor. 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=1500014|zOnline ebook via EBSCO.
