Today’s mass-produced tomatoes often grow to palm-sized proportions, but their naturally occurring ancestors were far smaller ...

Rotten tomatoes no more: growing sweeter tomatoes is possible by editing just two of the fruit’s genes. Deleting the genes ...

This protein can easily be programmed to find and bind to almost any desired target sequence, simply by giving it a piece of RNA to guide it in its search. When the CRISPR Cas9 protein is added to ...

Genes contain instructions for making proteins, and a central dogma of biology is that this information flows from DNA to RNA to proteins. But only two percent of the human genome actually encodes ...

One of the authors, Dalia Smalakytė, points out that the activity of the CRISPR-Cas protein scissors is tightly regulated in ...

who normally spends his time working on gene-editing technology Crispr, has gone one step further. His team edited a virus so that it had this alteration to the spike protein and pitted it against ...

The experiment with drug-resistant melanoma cells was inspired by the Gene Editing Institute's success in using CRISPR to disable a gene that produces a protein linked to drug resistance in lung ...

One of the authors, Dalia Smalakytė, points out that the activity of the CRISPR-Cas 'protein scissors' is tightly regulated ...

Hereditary angioedema is a rare genetic disease characterized by severe and unpredictable swelling attacks. NTLA-2002 is an in vivo gene-editing therapy that is based on clustered regularly ...

A single treatment with, a CRISPR-Cas9 based gene editing therapy ... that triggers swelling and in patients with HAE, this protein is basically let loose. The fact that we can reduce its presence ...
