Apr. 27, 2023 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. A new ...
Mar. 15, 2023 Despite recent advancements, many highly sensitive diagnostic tests for viral diseases still require complicated techniques to prepare a sample or interpret a result, making them impractical for ...
Feb. 8, 2023 When it comes to fighting off invaders, bacteria operate in a remarkably similar way to human cells, possessing the same core machinery required to switch immune pathways on and off, according to new ...
Jan. 24, 2023 Scientists succeed in boosting the efficiency of CRISPR/Cas9 and related methods and modifying initially inaccessible DNA sequences. They fine-tuned these tools to enable effective genetic screening ...
Jan. 19, 2023 Researchers have successfully demonstrated precision gene editing in miscanthus, a promising perennial crop for sustainable bioenergy production. Biologists edited the genomes of three miscanthus ...
Jan. 19, 2023 Researchers describe a new family of nano-scale capsules made of silica that can carry genome-editing tools into many organs around the body and then harmlessly ...
Jan. 17, 2023 Researchers have developed a new system for developing gene drives for areas ranging from human health to global food supplies. The new 'hacking' system converts split gene drives into full ...
Dec. 6, 2022 At the heart of every CRISPR reaction, whether naturally occurring in bacteria or harnessed by CRIPSR-Cas gene editing technology, is a strong molecular bond of a Cas protein via a guide RNA to its ...
Dec. 5, 2022 CRISPR, the Nobel Prize-winning gene editing technology, is poised to have a profound impact on the fields of microbiology and medicine yet again. A team has developed a tool to edit the genomes of ...
Nov. 28, 2022 Researchers have discovered and characterized a DNA sequence found in jawed vertebrates, such as sharks and humans, but absent in jawless vertebrates, such as lampreys. This DNA is important for the ...
Nov. 21, 2022 Researchers use CRISPR to make large scale genetic changes to bacteria by co-opting a natural ...
Nov. 9, 2022 Researchers have released their first findings on the potential effectiveness of revolutionary gene drive technology to control invasive ...
