A newly developed CRISPR-Cas9-based tool carries out efficient and long-term gene silencing by epigenetic editing Credit: BioDesign Research Originally discovered as a bacterial mode of defense against invading viruses, the remarkable ability of CRISPR-Cas9 to modify specific locations of DNA has made it a researcher favorite among gene editing tools.

Credit: TMIMS RNA interference is a gene regulatory mechanism in which the expression of specific genes is downregulated by endogenous microRNAs or by small interfering RNAs (siRNAs). Although siRNAs have broad potential for gene-silencing therapy, their instability is one of the difficulties to develop siRNA-based agents.

The tool could also prove to be safer than conventional CRISPR-based gene therapies as it does not involve DNA editing, and thus would not cause potentially harmful off-target genomic changes. Genes can be switched on with a complementary tool called CRISPRon that has also been described in the paper.

It is important to highlight that IVT mRNAs are structurally similar to natural mRNAs and can be used to express proteins through genetic engineering. RNA interference (RNAi) Therapeutics : Fundamentally, RNAi is a natural process of post-transcriptional gene silencing, involving short strands of nucleic acids.
