Cas9, scientists reconstitute live African swine fever virus from synthetic genomes, accelerating vaccine development for this deadly virus.

For the first time, Professor Veyrier and his team at INRS have discovered a family of enzymes that can cut specific sequences in single-stranded DNA. These enzymes, called site-specific ...

Recently, Professor Frédéric Veyrier at the Institut national de la recherche scientifique (INRS) and his team developed a new genetic tool based on a family of specific enzymes called Ssn that allows ...

Gene editing technologies allow scientists to use enzymes -- in this case, Cas9 (CRISPR-associated protein 9) -- as a sort of molecular scissors that can precisely cut or modify portions of DNA or ...

Washington: A revolution is underway in gene editing-- and at its forefront is David Liu, an American molecular biologist whose pioneering work is rewriting the building blocks of life with ...

Gene editing technologies allow scientists to use enzymes - in this case, Cas9 (CRISPR-associated protein 9) - as a sort of molecular scissors that can precisely cut or modify portions of DNA or ...

Advances in the gene-editing technology known as CRISPR-Cas9 over the past 15 years have yielded ... But to date this technology — which allows scientists to use a “guide” RNA to modify DNA sequences ...
