It helps to separate what the name actually stands for in nature from how scientists use the term today.

In Nature:

CRISPR stands for “Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats”. It is actually a region in a bacterium’s own DNA genome that acts as an immune memory library.…Read more

Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats

Clustered – They are grouped together in clusters on the bacterial DNA.

Regularly Interspaced – The repeating sequences are evenly spaced apart by “spacer” sequences (which are the viral DNA fragments the bacterium has collected).

Short – Each repeat is only about…Read more

These are DNA sequences found naturally in bacteria and archaea.

They function as a kind of genetic memory: bacteria store snippets of viral DNA inside CRISPR arrays after surviving infections.

When the same virus attacks again, the cell transcribes these stored…Read more

  • Definition: ddPCR (Droplet Digital PCR) is a form of digital PCR that uses water‑oil emulsion droplets to separate a sample into tens of thousands of nanoliter partitions.
  • Mechanism:
    • Each droplet acts as an independent PCR reaction vessel.
    • Target DNA/RNA molecules are randomly distributed across droplets.

While broad gene therapy refers to any treatment that modifies or introduces genetic material to treat a disease, CAR T cell therapy specifically modifies a patient’s immune cells outside the body to target and destroy cancer.
