Academic, industry, and FDA collaboration is key to personalized treatment manufacturing, says Aldevron’s Max Sellman at BPI this week.

The new system developed by Professor Chad Mirkin delivers CRISPR machinery more safely and effectively into cells.

At the heart of this technology is the Cas9 protein, often likened to molecular scissors, capable of cutting strands of DNA at specific locations dictated by a single guide RNA. With this mechanism, ...

RNA gene scissors (CRISPR-Cas13) are gaining significant attention as a next-generation gene therapy with fewer side effects. They can suppress infection by eliminating viral RNA, such as in ...

Gene editing and many other useful biotechnology tools came from studies of bacteria fighting off viral invaders. But scientists have only begun to unlock the secrets of this ancient arms race. All ...

Scientists study a molecular machine that moves jumping genes in DNA, paving the way for a new gene editing tool beyond ...

Even without deep computational skills, scientists can use the CRISPRware program to quickly browse entire libraries of precomputed guide RNAs for six model organisms, zoom in on their gene or region ...

Researchers engineered a bespoke CRISPR-Cas9 gene-editing enzyme to develop a potential therapy for MSMDS, which ...

SANTA CRUZ — A Ph.D. graduate student in biomolecular engineering at UC Santa Cruz, with a background in computer science and mathematics, has created an innovative software program called CRISPRware, ...

An ancient RNA-guided system with potential to expand gene-editing capabilities has been identified. Researchers at MIT’s McGovern Institute and the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard (both MA, USA) ...
