  • Explore the science of the groundbreaking technology for editing genes, called CRISPR- Cas9, and how the tool could be used to cure diseases.
    --
    From the smallest single-celled organism to the largest creatures on Earth, every living thing is defined by its genes. With recent advancements, scientists can change an organism’s fundamental features in record time using gene editing tools such as CRISPR. But where did this medical marvel come from and how does it work? Andrea M. Henle examines the science behind this new technology.
    Lesson by Andrea M. Henle, directed by Adam Wells.

      Cin scientifically speaking, human with wings is very impractical. The wings have to be so huge to lift our body and it will be exhausting to fly. And plus the fur can bring so many diseases and will be so hard to maintain. Iron suits for me please.

      I don't care if someone's super, or special. Those are human made-up terms. But you are right that if everyone was the same it'd be bad. You're just right for the wrong reason. :)
      Scientifically, this is bad because diversity is the key to survival. There is no perfect genome because genomes are context-sensitive. This is why eugenics leads to extinction.
      However, what if the technology was used to add more diversity, instead of removing existing diversity?
      As the number of genomes in a population approaches infinite, the number of possible extinction events that population can survive approaches infinite.
      It might seem scary, but that could lead to an extinction-proof human species-complex, or as close to extinction-proof as is logistically possible.
      Added bonus, we could actually colonize other worlds instead of just talking about it. Just send variants already suited to that world. Cost would be about 1/1,000,000,000,000'th the cost of terraforming.

      Get into research instead buddy.
      I completed my medical degree then took molecular biophysics to do research because doctors just dictate what already has been invented or discovered.
      I am not saying being a doctor is not exciting and fascinating but being a researcher is way more interesting and gives you that freedom to cure all diseases, and reverse aging and what all.

      Papa Franku the medical industry is corrupt. They already have cures but pharmacist earn lots of money prescribing drugs and kemo is expensive. Sadly some people care more about money than about saving lives.

    Terrific graphics! Great job communicating the essence of CRISPR to a general audience. Must have been a lot of fun work to produce. Just one point that may be misleading -- unless I am misunderstanding. Shouldn't the RNA and guide RNA be depicted as single-stranded molecules?

    • @freshbakedclips4659
      @freshbakedclips4659 Před 2 lety +6

      To be honest we don't really own our DNA, it's 50/50 from our parents, and it came from their parent's parents and so on.

    • @shanayagoel
      @shanayagoel Před 2 lety +1

      I don't know a lot of legalities and protocols around gene editing, so this is just my opinion, but I would assume that the process to create it might get patented, and the specific drug they administer to create it might be, but I wouldn't thin the DNA segment in itself would be patented. However, if a company were to create a specific gene that was completely new and non-existent in anyone, patent it, and someone suddenly by some crazy chance has their genes mutate to produce that, I doubt there would be legal complications around their ownership since they aren't trying to commercialize it.
