The University of Bayreuth's Biomaterials research group has, for the first time, successfully applied the CRISPR-Cas9 gene-editing tool to spiders. Following the genetic modification, the spiders ...

A study from the lab published recently in the journal Science Advances, describes a new way to screen for the genes that matter in chemotherapy resistance by using human tumor cells implanted in mice ...

CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing exploits the CRISPR-Cas ... improved gene activation and DNA cleavage in mammalian cells and mice. The authors evaluate multiple factors to improve knock-in rates ...

The applications did not adequately show possession of an operable CRISPR-Cas9 system in eukaryotic cells, even though they described the core components of the technology. As a result ...

Somatic hypermutation (SHM) of immunoglobulin variable (V) regions modulates antibody-antigen affinity is initiated by activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID) on single-stranded DNA (ssDNA).

IscBs are a type of OMEGA system, the evolutionary ancestors to Cas9, which is part of the bacterial CRISPR system that Zhang and others ... then used AAV to deliver the system to the livers of mice, ...
