Here, we walk you through everything you need to know about CRISPR-Cas9, including what it is ... plants that need less water, or cows that build more muscle mass without requiring extra feed.

New work led by Carnegie's Phillip Cleves uses cutting-edge CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing tools to reveal a gene that's critical to stony corals' ability to build their reef architectures. It is ...

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 ...

CRISPR-Cas9 combines a protein that can neatly snip DNA with a molecule that guides those molecular shears to a specific spot in an organism’s genome. Watch this video to learn how it works.

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.

Here’s how it works. CRISPR, short for CRISPR-Cas9, is a genome-editing tool that allows scientists to precisely cut and modify DNA sequences. It has revolutionized the study of genes ...

CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing technology is widely used to to help study genes of interest and modify disease-associated genes. However, the system is associated with adverse effects, including ...

And while I’m immeasurably pleased by the progress that’s happened since the publication of our first CRISPR-Cas9 paper a decade ... I know CRISPR will help us build. Jennifer Doudna is ...

For disorders caused by single genetic mutations, like Huntington’s disease and certain forms of Alzheimer’s disease, the delivery of CRISPR-Cas9 to tissues inside the body is a bottleneck.

In June 2012, biochemists Jennifer Doudna and Emmanuelle Charpentier published a paper describing how CRISPR works as a bacterial immune system. They revealed that Cas9, short for CRISPR ...

Today, CRISPR/Cas9 is successfully adapted for genome editing of various organisms, offering a revolutionary technique for researchers around the world. It offers a number of advantages over other ...
