CRISPR Biology Welcome to your CRISPR Biology quiz. Let's get started. 1. How CRISPR helps in site specific mutagenesis With the help of endonuclease activity and NHEJ With the help of endonuclease activity and HR With the help of endonuclease activity and BER None of the above None 2. What is the function of the guide RNA in CRISPR based gene editing? It guides the Cas9 protein to the target sequence It guides the Cas9 protein to cut the target sequence It helps in the formation of the effector complex It helps in transcription of the Cas9 protein 1 and 2 None 3. What is PCR? Polyprotein complex regulation Polymerase chain reaction Peripheral cell receptor None of the above None 4. CRISPR is best suited for which of the following Random mutagenesis Site specific mutagenesis DNA replacement All of the above None 5. From which bacteria the CRISPR/Cas9 system has been adopted in plant gene editing? S. pyogenes E. coli Bacteriophage None of the above None 6. None 7.
