15. The CRISPR/Cas9 system provides a form of adaptive immunity in bacteria. We discussed in class that it can be used in human cells to: A: Protect cells from infection with viruses B: Kill cells that carry a specific deletion C: Give cells a memory of the viruses that have infected them D: Greatly enhance the frequency of homologous recombination at a chosen I locus E: Kill cells that have not undergone the desired genome edit

In the experiment summarized below, scientists were examining the presence of specific sequences in individuals with age. In this experiment they extracted DNA from lymphocytes of various aged individuals and measured the length of a TTAGGG (in kb) repeat they found in their genomic DNA (Left Panel). In the right panel, the scientists measured the length of the same repeats in individuals with lymphocyte failure (red dots most severely effected) that have a mutation in a critical enzyme. Answer the following questions in 2-3 sentences each. A. What is the name of the specific sequence the scientists are measuring in the experiment shown below. B. For the individuals with lymphocyte pathology in the right panel, which gene is likely defective that causes the data shown? C. Explain why the length of the repeat sequence decreases with age.

Which of the following are required to set up a CRISPR-Cas9 experiment to fix a mutation in a gene so that the gene sequence will be changed to the wild-type sequence? Circle all that apply. O CRISPR-Cas9 nuclease O sgRNA (single guide RNA) complementary to the part of the target sequence to be fixed O a PAM site (immediately adjacent to the target sequence in the genome) O donor DNA containing wild-type sequence of the part of the gene that is targeted (donor DNA can also be called repair template)
This is a multiple answers question. Which statement is true about CRISPR-Cas system? CRISPRS stand for clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats Both bacteria and archaea can protect themselves from viral infection by using this system. Cas protein and short RNA form a complex The CRISPR region of DNA contains DNAS from previous infection by phages. Cas protein cuts target foreign DNA in pieces. The short RNA in the Cas protein and RNA complex has no function.
1. MEGA works differently than traditional CRISPR technology by targeting mRNA and NOT DNA sequences 2. MEGA is more specific and safer than traditional CRISPR technology, making it a novel and useful tool for gene editing purposes 3. MEGA may be suited as a possible strategy to enhance gene therapy approaches for patients with genetic disease such as blood cancers
