The emergence of advanced genome editing technologies has revolutionized research in life sciences, offering an unprecedented ...

Across all domains of life, immune defenses foil invading viruses by making it impossible for the viruses to replicate. Most known CRISPR systems target invading pathogens' DNA and chop it up to ...

With the first medical therapy approved and systems like CRISPR-Cas showing up in complex cells, there’s a lot happening in the genome editing field. By Amber Dance/Knowable Magazine Published Jan 26, ...

CRISPR’s promise of curing diseases hit a setback when researchers discovered that AZD7648, a molecule designed to improve precision, also caused catastrophic hidden damage to DNA. Instead of perfect ...

Precise tumor diagnosis and treatment require the support of abundant molecular information. However, conventional molecular diagnostic technologies gradually fail to satisfy the demands of clinical ...

The University of Bayreuth's Biomaterials research group has, for the first time, successfully applied the CRISPR-Cas9 gene-editing tool to spiders. Following the genetic modification, the spiders ...

As avian influenza viruses continue to affect bird populations throughout the world, researchers have explored various means of controlling this pathogen. On Tuesday, scientists reported in the ...

Genetic modifications in reproductive cells, such as eggs, sperm, or embryos, are commonly referred to as germline editing and are heritable. 1 CRISPR-Cas 9, which stands for clustered regularly ...

If the first CRISPR decade was marked by a mad dash to evolve, engineer, and mine the bacterial universe for more and better genome-editing enzymes, so far the second seems to be all about three words ...

The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has cleared GenEditBio Limited’s Investigational New Drug (IND) application to ...
