Next-generation sequencing methods that provide multi-omic read-outs of CRISPR-modified cells reveal the relevance of genetic variants to disease states. Benjamin Izar is trying to work out what ...
In a recent Molecular Therapy: Nucleic Acids study, researchers demonstrate enhanced loss-of-function editing of clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated ...
A woman born with almost no functional vision because of a genetic mutation has regained measurable sight after a single ...
Utah State University biochemists Thomson Hallmark and Ryan Jackson, along with collaborators, published two seminal papers this week. Their findings describe the structure and function of a newly ...
Genes contain instructions for making proteins, and a central dogma of biology is that this information flows from DNA to RNA to proteins. But only two percent of the human genome actually encodes ...
For several years now, the CRISPR/Cas9 gene scissors have been causing a sensation in science and medicine. This new tool of molecular biology has its origins in an ancient bacterial immune system. It ...
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a muscle degeneration disorder caused by mutations affecting the dystrophin gene. Researchers show how a dual CRISPR RNA method restored dystrophin protein ...
