CRISPR is one of the most revolutionary technologies of the modern era, and now it's being used to bring back long-lost genes ...

Researchers at Duke University used CRISPR technologies to discover previously unannotated stretches of DNA in the ‘dark genome’ that are responsible for controlling how cells sense and respond to the ...

To compete at iGEM, a sort of science Olympics, teens at a Georgia high school set their sights on finding a better way to detect and treat Lyme disease. Their approach uses CRISPR gene editing.

In the world of biopharmaceutical innovation, 2024 will be remembered as CRISPR’s breakout year. In the spring, five patients with sickle cell disease began treatment with Casgevy, the first ...

CRISPR Therapeutics recently drew attention as updates highlighted progress in its gene-editing pipeline, including early-stage studies of CTX310, an in vivo therapy designed to lower LDL cholesterol ...

The idea that a single-celled bacterium can defend itself against viruses in a similar way as the 1.8-trillion-cell human immune system is still “mind-blowing” for molecular biologist Joshua Modell of ...

A RIPE team used CRISPR/Cas9 to increase gene expression in rice by changing its upstream regulatory DNA. While other studies have used the technology to knock out or decrease the expression of genes, ...

CRISPR, the gene-editing technology which won its creators the 2020 Nobel Prize for Chemistry, is most well-known for its ...

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 ...
