Abstract
Photoactivable CRISPR technology represents a transformative approach in the field of genome editing, offering unprecedented control over gene editing with high spatial and temporal precision. By harnessing the power of light to modulate the activity of CRISPR components, this innovative strategy enables precise regulation of Cas proteins, guide RNAs, and ribonucleoprotein complexes. Recent advancements in optical control methodologies, including the development of photoactivable nanocarriers, have significantly expanded the potential applications of CRISPR in biomedical fields. This Concept highlights the latest developments in designing photoactivable CRISPR systems and their promising applications in biosensing and cancer therapy. Additionally, the remaining challenges and future trends are also discussed. It is expected that the photoactivable CRISPR would facilitate translating more precise gene therapies into clinical use.
