CRISPR powers everything from gene editing to rapid diagnostics, but how did one of its most versatile branches arise? A new Cell study, “Functional RNA splitting drove the evolutionary emergence of ...

At 3 months old, Victoria Gray wouldn’t stop crying. Blood tests brought devastating news: she had sickle cell disease, a genetic blood disorder that blocks blood flow and oxygen delivery to the body.

In the world of biopharmaceutical innovation, 2024 will be remembered as CRISPR’s breakout year. In the spring, five patients with sickle cell disease began treatment with Casgevy, the first ...

CRISPR-Cas systems are adaptive immune systems found in prokaryotes that defend against invading nucleic acids through CRISPR RNA-guided cleavage. Type V CRISPR-Cas (Cas12) systems, in particular, ...

A research group led by Associate Professor Tetsuya Muramoto from the Faculty of Science, Toho University, has established a ...

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 ...

Gene editing is growing up. Ten years after Science magazine named CRISPR its 2015 “Breakthrough of the Year,” this revolutionary gene editing technology has become a workhorse of modern biology. In ...

It crushed analyst estimates on both the top and bottom lines. This, despite significant erosion in both metrics. For its fourth quarter of 2024, CRISPR booked revenue of just under $36 million. That ...
