Australian cancer researchers are the first to establish a next-generation gene-editing tool for modeling and interrogating human disease.

Charity organisation Sickle Cell Society has described the recommendation as a “major breakthrough” for sickle cell patients.

Experts hailed exciting news for some people with sickle cell disease in England as the health watchdog decided to grant ...

Australian researchers have successfully introduced an improved version of Cas12a gene-editing enzyme in mice.

It's clear though that these companies need time. Even with the only approved CAS9 based treatment out there, CRISPR is still years away from achieving its potential. In a recent update to ...

The paper presents a streamlined new approach for functional validation of genes known to underlie fragile bone disorders in a relatively high throughput, using CRISPR-mediated knockouts and a number ...

CRISPR-Cas9 is one of the biggest discoveries of the 21st century. Since it was developed in 2012, this gene-editing tool has revolutionized biology research, making it easier to study disease and ...

that plays a crucial role in the DNA damage response and the NHEJ pathway. However, although AZD7648 significantly improves CRISPR–Cas9-directed HDR efficiencies in cells, potential unintended ...

Get Instant Summarized Text (Gist) CRISPR nucleases, Cas9 and Cas12, have been engineered to evade immune detection, addressing a key challenge in CRISPR-based therapies. By identifying and ...

Bring up germline editing, and most scientists cringe. The idea behind the notorious CRISPR-baby scandal, editing reproductive cells or embryos tinkers with DNA far beyond just the patient—any changes ...
