In the article "Sherlock: nucleic acid detection with CRISPR nucleases" by Max Kellner et al. (2020)Sherlock protocol (2).pdf Actions, authors explain in detail how CRISPR technology can be used to detect if a person is infected with SARS-CoV-2. In lecture, we mainly talked about CRISPR Cas9 but more Cas proteins have developed/discovered. Watch the following video that explain in more detail how Sherlock uses CRISPR technology to detect disease Which of the following statements are true:
Molecular Techniques
Molecular techniques are methods employed in molecular biology, genetics, biochemistry, and biophysics to manipulate and analyze nucleic acids (deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA)), protein, and lipids. Techniques in molecular biology are employed to investigate the molecular basis for biological activity. These techniques are used to analyze cellular properties, structures, and chemical reactions, with a focus on how certain molecules regulate cellular reactions and growth.
DNA Fingerprinting and Gel Electrophoresis
The genetic makeup of living organisms is shown by a technique known as DNA fingerprinting. The difference is the satellite region of DNA is shown by this process. Alex Jeffreys has invented the process of DNA fingerprinting in 1985. Any biological samples such as blood, hair, saliva, semen can be used for DNA fingerprinting. DNA fingerprinting is also known as DNA profiling or molecular fingerprinting.
Molecular Markers
A known DNA sequence or gene sequence is present on a chromosome, and it is associated with a specific trait or character. It is mainly used as a genetic marker of the molecular marker. The first genetic map was done in a fruit fly, using genes as the first marker. In two categories, molecular markers are classified, classical marker and a DNA marker. A molecular marker is also known as a genetic marker.
DNA Sequencing
The most important feature of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) molecules are nucleotide sequences and the identification of genes and their activities. This the reason why scientists have been working to determine the sequences of pieces of DNA covered under the genomic field. The primary objective of the Human Genome Project was to determine the nucleotide sequence of the entire human nuclear genome. DNA sequencing selectively eliminates the introns leading to only exome sequencing that allows proteins coding.

Which of the following statements are true:
![Cas 13 is easier to synthesize than Cas 9
O Cas 13 cleaves RNA at the collateral site when the guide RNA
attaches to its target.
Cas 13 is more stable than Cas 9
Cas 13 cleaves RNA at all times at the collateral site
The reporter molecule, reports the presence of infection when Cas
13 cleaves it from an RNA molecule.
Sherlock can only work to detect COVID 19.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F05c65dc2-1bbd-4f25-923c-8ed6cf99efbb%2F35461cd9-b8fe-4a99-b6c0-f43dae41448d%2Frfljbzg_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
