Abstract
High-throughput genetic screening serves as an indispensable approach for deciphering gene functions and the intricate relationships between phenotypes and genotypes. The CRISPR/Cas9 system, with its ability to precisely edit genomes on a large scale, has revolutionized the field by enabling the construction of comprehensive genomic libraries. This technology has become a cornerstone for genome-wide screenings in disease research. This review offers a comprehensive examination of how CRISPR/Cas9-based genetic screening has been leveraged to uncover genes that play a role in disease mechanisms, focusing on areas such as cancer development and viral replication processes. The insights presented in this review hold promise for the development of novel therapeutic strategies and precision medicine approaches.
期刊介绍：
MCP - Advancing biology through–omics and bioinformatic technologies wants to capture outcomes from the current revolution in molecular technologies and sciences. The journal has broadened its scope and embraces any high quality research papers, reviews and opinions in areas including, but not limited to, molecular biology, cell biology, biochemistry, immunology, physiology, epidemiology, ecology, virology, microbiology, parasitology, genetics, evolutionary biology, genomics (including metagenomics), bioinformatics, proteomics, metabolomics, glycomics, and lipidomics. Submissions with a technology-driven focus on understanding normal biological or disease processes as well as conceptual advances and paradigm shifts are particularly encouraged. The Editors welcome fundamental or applied research areas; pre-submission enquiries about advanced draft manuscripts are welcomed. Top quality research and manuscripts will be fast-tracked.
