DNA editing and repair, conceptual illustration. The edited and repaired sections are at left, representing the insertion of new or replacement material into the DNA double helix. DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is the genetic material that controls the growth and development of all living organisms. The genetic code is formed by the order of nucleotide bases along this helix, and inserting or editing this genetic code produces changes in an organism. A variety of techniques have been developed to edit DNA, including the use of the CRISPR-Cas9 protein. This illustration represents the use of nanotechnology to carry out the gene editing and repair.
