Genome editing technologies like CRISPR-Cas9 have transformed biology, medicine, and agriculture, but concerns remain about ...

CRISPR-Cas tools allow researchers to modify individual building blocks of genetic material in a precise and targeted manner. Gene therapies based on such gene editing are already being used to ...

Researchers used epigenome engineering and CRISPR to reprogram sperm DNA, allowing embryos to develop with only fathers.

They also found that after the extra chromosome was removed, genes tied to nervous system development were more active and ...

CRISPR-Cas systems usually require the guide RNA to match up with a DNA sequence that’s some 18 to 20 genetic letters, or bases, in length. Chances are, Esvelt calculates, ...

Plants face simultaneous abiotic (drought, salinity, heat) and biotic (pathogens, pests) stresses in natural and agricultural ...

CRISPR-Cas systems usually require the guide RNA to match up with a DNA sequence that’s some 18 to 20 genetic letters, or bases, in length. Chances are, Esvelt calculates, there’s no more than one ...

These CRISPR-Cas systems [in nature] are very, very diverse, and we aim to understand this diversity of CRISPR-Cas systems from a fundamental perspective. And also, we hope that, ...

But CRISPR-Cas now appears to go even further than cutting DNA. “When we discovered CRISPR-Cas, we observed that it cuts viral DNA in precise locations,” explains Brouns.

The CRISPR-Cas gene scissors offer a wide range of potential applications, from the treatment of genetic diseases to antiviral therapies and diagnostics. However, to safely harness their powers ...

CRISPR-Cas gene editing technology is a groundbreaking method in molecular biology that allows for precise alterations to the genomes of living organisms. This revolutionary technique, ...
