Genome editing is a process by which specific sequences of DNA are targeted for ____________ . "CRISPR" is the most widely used method for genome editing. These clustered, regularly interspersed, short palindromic repeats were first discovered acting as ____________ in prokaryotes. The CRISPR system relies on an ____________ called Cas9, which inactivates invading viruses by breaking the ____________ strands. Cas9 relies on a guide ____________ molecule to locate specific nucleotides to be cut in the viral genome. The bacteria is protected against the destructive nature of Cas9 by a PAM sequence found ____________ .
