Abstract

The rapid advancement of CRISPR-Cas technology has revolutionized genetic research, offering unprecedented precision in gene editing. One of the most promising applications of CRISPR is in pathogen engineering, where it holds the potential to transform how we approach infectious diseases. By enabling targeted modifications of pathogenic genomes, CRISPR technology offers novel avenues for developing vaccines, therapeutic strategies, and diagnostic tools. This paper explores the emerging applications of CRISPR in pathogen engineering, focusing on its role in modifying bacterial, viral, and parasitic pathogens. It highlights how CRISPR can be used to create genetically modified pathogens for research purposes, enhance pathogen resistance to antimicrobial agents, and design novel pathogen-based therapies. Additionally, we examine the implications of CRISPR-driven pathogen engineering in precision medicine, including its potential to tailor treatments based on the genetic makeup of pathogens and patients. The paper also addresses the challenges and ethical concerns associated with gene editing in pathogens, such as biosafety risks and regulatory considerations. Ultimately, CRISPR technology represents a transformative tool in the fight against infectious diseases, paving the way for more personalized and effective medical interventions.
