CRISPR-Cas9 is widely used to edit the genome by studying genes of interest and modifying disease-associated genes. However, this process is associated with side effects including unwanted mutations ...

PHILADELPHIA— A new approach to the genetic engineering of cells promises significant improvements in speed, efficiency, and reduction in cellular toxicity compared to current methods. The approach ...

Scientists and physicians can better assess precision genome editing technology using a new method made public today by St.

Researchers have opened a transformative chapter in agricultural biotechnology by unveiling virus-induced genome editing (VIGE) techniques for Solanaceous crops, a group that includes tomatoes, ...

Advanced biotechnology repurposes two bacterial immune systems to correct large stretches of DNA. Human cells that have been edited with the new retron-based gene editing technology. Orange dots mark ...

CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing technology is widely used to to help study genes of interest and modify disease-associated genes. However, the system is associated with adverse effects, including mutations ...

Functionally relevant changes to cellular genetic code were first observed by exposing cells to radiation or genotoxic chemicals to introduce random mutations. It was later shown that precise genome ...

Chemists have developed an efficient skeletal editing method for frequently used heteroaromatic structures. The technique could serve as a means to chemically modify biologically active compounds.
