Today we can use multiple of endonucleases for genome editing which has become very important and used in number of applications. We use sequence specific molecular scissors out of which, most important are mega nucleases, zinc finger nucleases, TALENS (Transcription Activator Like-Effector Nucleases) and CRISPR-Cas9 which is currently the most famous due to a number of reasons, they are cheap, easy to build, very specific in nature and their success rate in plants and animals is also high. Who knew that one day these CRISPR discovered as a part of immune system of bacteria will be this much worthwhile in the field of genetic engineering? This review interprets the science behind their mechanism and how several advancements were made with the passage of time to make them more efficient for the assigned job.

Associated Proteins

Impressive therapeutic advances have been possible through the advent of zinc-finger nucleases and transcription activator-like effector nucleases. However, discovery of the more efficient and highly tailorable clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) and associated proteins (Cas9) has provided unprecedented gene-editing capabilities for treatment of various inherited and acquired diseases. Despite recent clinical trials, a major barrier for therapeutic gene editing is the absence of safe and effective methods for local and systemic delivery of gene-editing reagents. In this review, we elaborate on the challenges and provide practical considerations for improving gene editing. Specifically, we highlight issues associated with delivery of gene-editing tools into clinically relevant cells.

Ethical Point

Modificazioni controllate nel genoma sono possibili, tramite svariate tecniche, sin dagli anni ’70. Nucleasi a dito di zinco, nucleasi TALE, ma soprattutto CRISPR-Cas9 sono tecniche di editing genetico che hanno reso più semplice effettuarle. Il sistema CRISPR-Cas9, in particolare, si sta dimostrando estremamente vantaggioso in termini di accessibilità, efficienza e versatilità. Gli obiettivi del presente contributo consistono nel: 1. ricostruire i “fatti” salienti che hanno determinato l’emergere del topic dell’“editing genetico”; 2. provare a dar risposta a un primo fondamentale interrogativo circa l’originalità dei dilemmi etici da esso sollevato con particolare riferimento al CRISPR-Cas9. La conclusione è che, allo stato attuale, l’impiego di queste nuove tecniche non solleva questioni etiche nuove. L’unica eccezione sembrerebbe essere data dal particolare tipo di mutazioni indotte da queste tecniche, indistinguibili a lungo termine da quelle prodotte dalla natura, fatto che sta già determinando qualche difficoltà nella classificazione degli OGM ottenuti tramite queste tecniche. ---------- Controlled genome mutations are made possible through several techniques since the ’70s. Zinc finger nucleases, TALE nucleases and above all CRISPR-Cas9 system are “gene editing” techniques which have made mutations easier. Particularly, CRISPR-Cas9 system seems to be extremely profitable in terms of accessibility, efficiency and versatility. The aims of the present article are: 1. to reconstruct the main “facts” about the birth of the topic on “gene editing”; to seek to answer a first question about the novelty of issues raised by this topic. Our conclusion is that, from an ethical point of view, using these techniques does not raise new ethical questions. Perhaps, the only exception refers to the specific mutations produced through these techniques which cannot be distinguished from natural mutations and makes GMO classification more difficult.
