A gene called SDR42E1 has been identified as a key player in how our bodies absorb and process vitamin D. Researchers found that disabling this gene in colorectal cancer cells not only crippled their ...
Cas9 is directed to its target within the DNA sequence through the use of the guide RNA. A specific sequence of DNA that is between two and five nucleotides in length must align with the 3’ end of the ...
When scientists discovered how bacteria protect themselves against viral invaders, called phages, in the early 2000s, little did they know they'd stumbled upon a revolutionary tool researchers could ...
For a decade, leading academic institutes and their associated companies fought a bruising, headline-grabbing fight over who held patent rights to CRISPR-Cas9, the revolutionary genome editing tool.
Scientists used CRISPR/Cas9 to increase gene expression in rice by changing its upstream regulatory DNA. While other studies have used the technology to knock out or decrease the expression of genes, ...
DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "CRISPR Cas9 Market Opportunity & Clinical Trials Outlook 2029" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering. The global landscape of medical therapies is ...
Scientists introduced CRISPR to the world as a gene-editing tool in summer 2012, when landmark papers from two independent groups demonstrated how the system could be wielded to make cuts in DNA. Now, ...
Scientists from Zhejiang University have developed a novel delivery vehicle for CRISPR-Cas9 that is more effective than lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) in treating lung cancer. Rapid liquid nitrogen ...
Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) and CRISPR-associated (Cas) proteins are core components of fast-evolving therapeutic gene editing tools. Scientists have used CRISPR ...
