Inside cells, DNA twists and coils itself into a variety of different secondary structures—including i-motifs (iMs) and ...
CRISPR is one of the most revolutionary technologies of the modern era, and now it's being used to bring back long-lost genes ...
Gene-editing techniques such as CRISPR-Cas9 have many uses in the area of food and agriculture. They can combat persistent drought and disease, and improve the colour and nutritional content of food ...
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 ...
The Food and Drug Administration on Friday approved two gene therapies to treat sickle cell disease, one of the which is the first CRISPR/Cas9-based treatment to win regulatory approval in the US. The ...
Crispr Therapeutics, a leader in CRISPR/Cas9 biotechnology, recently received FDA and EMA approval for Casgevy, the first CRISPR/Cas9-based treatment for TDT and SCD. The partnership with Vertex ...
Scientists introduced CRISPR to the world as a gene-editing tool in summer 2012, when landmark papers from two independent groups demonstrated how the system could be wielded to make cuts in DNA. Now, ...
Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) and CRISPR-associated (Cas) proteins are core components of fast-evolving therapeutic gene editing tools. Scientists have used CRISPR ...
