An enzymatic scissors recognizes and cuts viral RNA, but leaves the host cell unharmed. This opens up new antiviral ...
When activated by its target, the newly characterized molecule rips the genome apart, a lethal move that researchers can ...
Using the gene scissors CRISPR and stem cells, researchers at Stockholm University and the UK Dementia Research Institute (UK DRI) at King's College London have managed to identify a common ...
Engineered microorganisms are widely used in industrial biotechnology and biopharmaceutical applications, including the ...
A Phase I/II clinical trial shows that a stem cell transplant that removes CD33 from donor cells using CRISPR can prevent ...
Breakthrough trial results: A phase 1/2 trial found CRISPR-edited stem cells engrafted on schedule in AML and MDS patients, similar to standard transplant recovery times. Toxicity problem solved?: ...
In nature, the best-known CRISPR system, CRISPR-Cas9, cuts any RNA or DNA it recognizes as foreign, and thereby protects bacteria from viral attacks. Another CRISPR system, one that is relatively ...
When scientists discovered how bacteria protect themselves against viral invaders, called phages, in the early 2000s, little did they know they’d stumbled upon a revolutionary tool researchers could ...
