Discover how CRISPR genome editing is revolutionizing medicine. Learn the science of Cas9, current clinical trials, and the future of gene editing.

“These enzymes therefore have this property with their own specificity,” said Alex Rivera-Millot, a postdoctoral fellow and co-first author of the study. This finding is more than a scientific ...

The CRISPR gene editing system holds tremendous promise. It has already revolutionized biomedical research by making gene editing a straightforward process. It involves using a guide RNA molecule that ...

The biotech startup Inscripta is attempting to “democratize” CRISPR by offering it to select researchers at no cost, according to Fortune. Here are four things to know about the startup’s business ...

(Nanowerk News) The Molecular Microbiology research group at the University of Alicante (UA) has identified a new enzyme with promising properties for CRISPR-Cas gene editing tools. Named AlCas12a, ...

Researchers have used CRISPR to switch back on a gene that vanished from the human lineage roughly 20 million years ago, reviving a natural defense against excess uric acid that our ancestors once ...

Researchers have successfully resurrected a gene that humanity lost millions of years ago. The results could change how we treat common diseases such as gout and maybe even contribute to slowing down ...

In a new study published in Nature titled, “Custom CRISPR-Cas9 PAM variants via scalable engineering and machine learning,” researchers from Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) and Harvard Medical ...

Researchers have engineered a new class of adenine base editors that reduce unwanted bystander mutations by two to three times compared to the widely used ABE8e, while preserving the editing power ...

In a major breakthrough, a patient has been treated with a personalized CRISPR therapeutic that aims to cure their rare genetic disease. This individual, who is known as KJ, was diagnosed with severe ...
