Delivering a compact CRISPR, "psCas12f," which can be turned on and off with light, via a single AAV, and performing genome editing "only where targeted" using focused ultrasound via light-emitting pa ...

Researchers have developed a novel version of a key CRISPR gene-editing protein that shows efficient editing activity and is small enough to be packaged within a non-pathogenic virus that can deliver ...

Plant breeding plays a vital role in ensuring global food security by increasing crop yields, improving nutritional quality and creating crops that are adaptable to climate change. However, current ...

Since the beginning of the HIV epidemic, scientists, doctors, and public health experts have spent decades trying to understand the virus and control its spread. Modern treatments now allow people ...

Scientists have long used a powerful gene-editing tool called CRISPR to make precise changes to DNA. But a different version ...

Researchers have made many modifications to the CRISPR system since it was first developed. CRISPR is a DNA-editing tool that usually uses an enzyme known as Cas9, which can cut genomic DNA. This Cas9 ...

Late last month, Anthropic claimed it had discovered a curious stretch of DNA in a virus called a bacteriophage that repeats over and over again. This is a similar feature to that of CRISPR, the basis ...

SALT LAKE CITY--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Seek Labs, a healthcare innovations company developing next-generation point-of-care molecular diagnostic systems and novel CRISPR-based gene therapies, announced ...

As he addressed an audience of virologists from China, Australia, and Singapore at October’s Pandemic Research Alliance Symposium, Wei Zhao introduced an eye-catching idea. The gene-editing technology ...

Anthropic’s claim its AI agents discovered an unusual pattern in viral DNA similar to what’s seen in the gene-editing tool ...

Scientists have designed a slimmed-down CRISPR protein, enEbCas12a, that still packs a punch in precision editing. Its small size means it can hitch a ride in a harmless virus, delivering edits ...
