Cas9 is directed to its target within the DNA sequence through the use of the guide RNA. A specific sequence of DNA that is between two and five nucleotides in length must align with the 3’ end of the ...

本文报道了利用DNA-free CRISPR/Cas9技术对淀粉马铃薯品种"Kuras"中甾体糖生物碱（SGA）生物合成通路的关键基因进行定向编辑，成功获得SGA含量显著降低的突变体。研究靶向胆固醇合成前（SMO1-L、DWF1-L、DWF7-L）及合成后（16DOX、CYP88B1、TAMiso2）的6个关键基因，通过 ...

We performed both homology-based and GUIDE-seq nomination of candidate off-target sites, which resulted in the testing of 5002 sites from four healthy donors (not shown). We then nominated additional ...

Researchers have now used a gene-drive system to suppress an important agricultural pest. Researchers have developed a "homing gene drive system" based on CRISPR/Cas9 that could be used to suppress ...

Crispr Therapeutics, a leader in CRISPR/Cas9 biotechnology, recently received FDA and EMA approval for Casgevy, the first CRISPR/Cas9-based treatment for TDT and SCD. The partnership with Vertex ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — More than a decade ago, scientists harnessed a bacterial molecular machine that identifies and cuts specific sections of DNA, revolutionizing the ability to edit genes and ...

Scientists introduced CRISPR to the world as a gene-editing tool in summer 2012, when landmark papers from two independent groups demonstrated how the system could be wielded to make cuts in DNA. Now, ...

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 ...
