Researchers have identified an ancient RNA-guided system that can target DNA, potentially expanding the genome-editing toolbox.

These systems, which the researchers call TIGR (Tandem Interspaced Guide RNA) systems, use RNA to guide them to specific sites on DNA. TIGR systems can be reprogrammed to target any DNA sequence ...
