A popular gene-editing technique may unintentionally delete and rearrange DNA bases, according to a new study published in Nature Biotechnology. The study involves the use of CRISPR-Cas9, a system ...
An experimental gene-editing treatment shows promise for permanently lowering levels of cholesterol and triglycerides, ...
CRISPR claimed scientific fame for its ability to quickly and accurately edit genes. But, at the core, CRISPR systems are immune systems that help bacteria protect themselves from viruses by targeting ...
The first gene-editing therapies for HIV/Aids are entering trials but the virus is proving once again that it is a master at ...
Two studies published in Nature Medicine June 11 contribute to a small body of literature suggesting cells edited with CRISPR-Cas9 may cause cancer. Here are five things to know about the studies and ...
Scientists used CRISPR to disable the NRF2 gene, restoring chemotherapy sensitivity in lung cancer cells and slowing tumor ...
In nature, the best-known CRISPR system, CRISPR-Cas9, cuts any RNA or DNA it recognizes as foreign, and thereby protects bacteria from viral attacks. Another CRISPR system, one that is relatively ...
The results of a metagenomic study from the University of Trento suggest that the CRISPR toolbox will need to make room for another CRISPR enzyme. The disruption should be minimal because the newly ...
Biochemist Jennifer Doudna received the inaugural Kimberly Prize in Biochemistry and Molecular Genetics at the Robert H. Lurie Medical Research Center on Tuesday. The prize will be awarded annually to ...
