In just a decade, CRISPR has become one of the most celebrated inventions in modern biology. It is swiftly changing how medical researchers study diseases: Cancer biologists are using the method to discover hidden vulnerabilities of tumor cells. Doctors are using CRISPR to edit genes that cause hereditary diseases.

Cas3 systems raises the possibility of its development as a tool for large genomic deletions, such as the targeted removal of entire genes, gene clusters, islands, prophages or plasmids

ethical ramifications of widely accessible tools for altering genomes.

Some worry that this is the first step toward using gene editing to create people with extreme intelligence, beauty or athletic ability. But that, for now, is not possible. Such traits are thought to be affected by possibly hundreds of genes acting in concert, and affected in turn by the environment. The biggest ethical concerns for now are with rogue scientists enticing couples who do not realize the risks to babies that might result from the experiments. And when those children grow up, the altered genes will be passed on to their children, and to their children’s children, for generations to come

The MGEs are less abundant in archaea and bacteria, conceivably due to the intense purifying selection that constrains the spread of selfish elements but nevertheless constitute up to 30% of some bacterial genomes ( Casjens 2003 ; Carle et al. 2010 ).

Where should we draw the ethical and moral lines? Will CRISPR mean people are making designer babies and eliminating genetic diseases, and is that acceptable? We can wipe out whole species, like the mosquitos that carry the malaria parasite. But should we?

The controversial gene editing technique CRISPR could help scientists solve antimicrobial resistance, cure genetic diseases and much more
