Traditional breeding and genetic modification methods have struggled to keep pace with the rapid evolution of plant viruses. CRISPR/Cas systems, originally derived from bacterial immune responses, ...

Science isn’t always serious. Sometimes researchers ask questions that seem silly at first, like why toast lands butter-side ...

A new scalable technique enables the generation of human kidney organoids by integrating them into perfused pig kidneys.

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 ...

Both CRSP and NTLA are advancing in vivo gene editing therapies targeting large markets, with financial stability supporting ...

For years, the CRISPR-Cas9 genome technology has been reshaping genetic engineering, a precision tool to transform everything from agriculture to medicine. With its incredible efficiency, this ...

UC and Broad have been involved in two interferences at the patent office. Interference No. 106,115 was the second interference between UC and Broad over patent rights to CRISPR-Cas9 technology in ...

Transthyretin amyloidosis with cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM) is a progressive, often fatal disease. Nexiguran ziclumeran (nex-z) is an investigational therapy based on CRISPR-Cas9 (clustered regularly ...

CHICAGO – A CRISPR-Cas9-based investigational therapy was linked with a drop in serum transthyretin (TTR) levels in patients with transthyretin amyloidosis with cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM), according to ...

A gene called SDR42E1 has been identified as a key player in how our bodies absorb and process vitamin D. Researchers found that disabling this gene in colorectal cancer cells not only crippled their ...
