Redwood City, California – May 16, 2017 – Synthego, a leading provider of genome engineering solutions, announces powerful online CRISPR tools that make accessible over 100,000 genomes for fast and ...
A powerful form of DNA-editing machinery discovered in bacteria might allow us to make much bigger changes to genomes than is currently possible with CRISPR-based techniques. However, it isn’t yet ...
Like the human immune system, bacteria learn from past infections. CRISPR sequences—short snippets of DNA from previous viruses—guide destructive enzymes towards invading bacteriophages that express ...
A single infusion of an experimental gene-editing drug appears safe and effective for cutting cholesterol, possibly for life, according to a small early study released Saturday. The study, which ...
CRISPR, the gene-editing technology that has revolutionized biological research, is finally available as a medical treatment with regulatory approval. On December 8 the U.S. Food and Drug ...
"I'm like: 'Yeah. Sign me up. I'll be your guinea pig,' " she says, laughing. Bartolome, a former NBA basketball player, was game, too. "It sounded like something from a science fiction movie. I ...
