A recent study showcases the power of CRISPR gene editing to significantly boost the production of resveratrol, a ...

integrating those elements into the bacterium’s genome (at the CRISPR locus), and using the RNAs produced from the integrated elements to direct destruction of the corresponding virus. In essence, the ...

called “spacers” into the CRISPR locus in the genome of the bacterial host. These spacers are later transcribed into crRNA that are loaded on Cas nucleases to target them to cleave and block recurring ...

Gene editing firm CRISPR Therapeutics has announced a collaboration with US biotech Nkarta to develop natural killer (NK) cell therapies for cancer. This latest agreement follows a major deal with ...

Study: Activation of the imprinted Prader-Willi syndrome locus by CRISPR-based epigenome editing ... levels were not always identical to natural paternal activation. Additionally, while off ...

“Since we wanted to activate specific genes – rather than change their sequence – we inactivated the DNA-cutting function of the Cas9 protein in CRISPR and used it only to find and bind to the PWS ...
