Abstract

Genome editing[1] is a powerful new tool for making precise additions, deletions, and alterations to the genome—an or-ganism’s complete set of genetic material. In recent years, the emergence of highly versatile genome-editing technologies has provided investigators with the ability to rapidly and economically introduce sequence-specific modifications into the genomes of a broad spectrum of cell types and organisms.
