Application of CRISPR-Cas9 in Fisheries as a Genetic Tool for Future Aspects
Sumit Mallick, Janmejay Parhi, N.C. Devi and Pallavi Yadav*
Abstract
The CRISPR-Cas system, initially discovered in 1987, has revolutionized biotechnology, medicine, and chemical biology since its widespread adoption in 2013.
Its unique target specificity, enabled by guide RNA (gRNA), has facilitated diverse applications in genome editing, gene therapy, molecular diagnostics, and basic research. The system consists of CRISPR arrays and Cas proteins, operating through distinct stages of adaptation, expression, maturation, and interference in prokaryotic immune systems. Recent advancements include applications in fisheries, such as pathogen detection and diagnostics for diseases like TiLV and WSSV, as well as genome editing of commercially significant fish species to enhance traits like growth and disease resistance. Notable breakthroughs include the rapid development of genetic mutant breeds and efficient sgRNA design for precise genome editing. Future prospects highlight CRISPR's potential in healthcare and agriculture while emphasizing ethical considerations to mitigate environmental risks associated with genetically modified organisms. The CRISPR-Cas9 system underscores transformative possibilities in research, aquaculture, and conservation biology, necessitating responsible and sustainable applications.
