近日，中国农业大学农学院赖锦盛教授团队在国际顶尖学术期刊《Nucleic Acids Research》上发表重要研究成果，题为《Casδ, an evolutionary transitional CRISPR system enables ...

A new CRISPR approach can control genes without cutting DNA, opening a safer path for treating genetic diseases. A newly ...

To protect themselves against viral infection, bacteria often use CRISPR-Cas systems to identify and destroy an invading virus’s genetic material. But viruses aren’t helpless and can deploy ...

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

Gene editing has moved from theory to bedside with a speed that would have seemed impossible a decade ago. A new wave of ...

A new technique has been added to the CRISPR gene-editing toolbox. Known as PASTE, the system uses virus enzymes to “drag-and-drop” large sections of DNA into a genome, which could help treat a range ...

When scientists first discovered CRISPR, the possibilities for gene editing seemed endless. But challenges remain when it comes to actually translating that discovery into a therapy that works for ...

In this interview, News Medical speaks to Assistant Professor Ryan Jackson about his latest work, published in tandem Nature papers, detailing the discovery of a new CRISPR immune system. Please can ...

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a muscle degeneration disorder caused by mutations affecting the dystrophin gene. Researchers show how a dual CRISPR RNA method restored dystrophin protein ...

Another potentially game-changing discovery has come out of the lab of Feng Zhang, PhD. This time, they uncovered the first programmable RNA-guided system in eukaryotes. Just a few months ago, the ...

Previous studies in mice have shown that gene editing may be used to potentially treat conditions such as anxiety. While CRISPR/Cas9 represents a revolutionary gene editing technology, its delivery to ...
