Scientists have developed SMART (silently mutate and repair template), a strategy that dramatically expands the editable ...

CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing exploits the CRISPR-Cas system to modify a genome in a targeted manner. Guided by RNA, the Cas9 endonuclease breaks DNA at a target sequence. Imprecise repair of the ...

CRISPR-Cas systems are prokaryotic immune systems that confer resistance to foreign genetic elements such as plasmids and phages. CRISPR-Cas systems have been exploited for targeted genome editing ...

“My whole adult life up to that point I was pretty much a cancer patient." The treatment she received uses “CRISPR gene editing” to create an individualized treatment for Stage 4 colorectal ...
