Abstract | Tuberculosis (TB), which caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, is the leading cause of death from a single infectious agent and continues to be a major public health burden for the global community. Despite being the only globally licenced prophylactic vaccine, Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) has multiple deficiencies, and effective diagnostic and therapeutic options are limited. Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-Cas (CRISPR-associated proteins) is an adaptive immune system that is found in bacteria and has great potential for the development of novel antituberculosis drugs and vaccines. In addition, CRISPR-Cas is currently recognized as a prospective tool for the development of therapies for TB infection with potential diagnostic and therapeutic value, and CRISPR-Cas may become a viable tool for eliminating TB in the future. Herein, we systematically summarize the current applications of CRISPR-Cas-based technology for TB detection and its potential roles in drug discovery and vaccine development. |
