Animal Genomics and Drug Design

This book Animal Genomics and Drug Design: The Genetic Engineering Nexus is born from a growing need to integrate and communicate knowledge across the overlapping domains of zoology genomics biotechnology and pharmacology. Animals long considered models of biological systems and disease processes are now at the heart of precision medicine thanks to rapid advances in genome sequencing editing tools like CRISPR-Cas9 and computational drug modeling. We aim to provide a comprehensive yet accessible exploration of how animal genetic blueprints are being deciphered and leveraged to design more effective and targeted drugs. From genetically modified animal models used in preclinical trials to identifying homologous genes influencing drug metabolism this book presents a thorough understanding of the nexus that binds evolution molecular biology and therapeutic innovation.
