Abstract

Recent advancements in nucleic acid research have revolutionized our understanding of genetic regulation, diagnostics, and therapeutics. The emergence of next-generation RNA technologies, including RNA-based vaccines and RNA editing tools such as Adenosine Deaminase Acting on RNA (ADAR)-mediated systems, has expanded the utility of nucleic acids beyond traditional gene expression roles. In parallel, Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindomic Repeats (CRISPR)-Cas systems have evolved into more precise, efficient, and programmable platforms for genome and epigenome editing, with innovations like CRISPR-Cas9 enabling nucleic acid detection and RNA manipulation. Moreover, nanopore sequencing and single-molecule real-time sequencing technologies are driving ultra-fast, high-resolution genomic analysis, empowering personalized medicine and microbiome profiling. Collectively, these trends mark a transformative era in nucleic acid research, fostering breakthroughs in precision medicine, synthetic biology, and disease diagnostics.
