Abstract

Cancer is caused by a series of alterations in genome and epigenome mostly resulting in activation of oncogenes or inactivation of cancer suppressor genes. Genetic engineering has become pivotal in the treatment of cancer and other genetic diseases, especially the formerly-niche use of clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) associated with Cas9. In defining its superior use, we have followed the recent advances that have been made in producing CRISPR/Cas9 as a therapy of choice. we also provide important genetic mutations where CRISPRs can be repurposed to create adaptive immunity to fight carcinomas and edit genetic mutations causing it. recently the use of CRISPER-Cas 9 has incresed  tremendously compared with other of the endonucleases  for example ZFNs and TALENs.  challenges to CRISPR   technology are also discussed with emphasis on ability of pathogens to evolve against CRISPRs.  which can efficiently deliver it to target cells; furthermore, analogous technologies are also discussed along CRISPRs, including zinc-finger nuclease (ZFN) and transcription activator-like effector nucleases (TALENs).  Moreover, progress in clinical applications of CRISPR therapeutics is reviewed; in effect, patients can have lower morbidity and/or mortality from the therapeutic method with least possible side-effects.  A numer of in depth reviews have been covered adaptive immunity in bacteria, which involves the mechanism of adaptive resistance based on crisper-cas system.
