A compact Cas12f nuclease shows high editing efficiency in human cells, with structural insights enabling an engineered variant potentially suited for future AAV‑compatible delivery.

Gene-editing techniques such as CRISPR-Cas9 have many uses in the area of food and agriculture. They can combat persistent drought and disease, and improve the colour and nutritional content of food ...

The biotech startup Inscripta is attempting to “democratize” CRISPR by offering it to select researchers at no cost, according to Fortune. Here are four things to know about the startup’s business ...

Aurora Therapeutics' first target is the rare inherited disease phenylketonuria, also known as PKU. Here at MIT Technology Review we’ve been writing about the gene-editing technology CRISPR since 2013 ...

The CRISPR gene-editing tool can be used to silence an important hepatitis B virus gene, a proof-of-concept in vitro study suggests. "It's the first time we've seen CRISPR editing done in a hepatitis ...

Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) and CRISPR-associated (Cas) proteins are core components of fast-evolving therapeutic gene editing tools. Scientists have used CRISPR ...

Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) refer to the small fragments of viral DNA that are stored by the bacteria as a part of their defense mechanism. CRISPR–Cas9 is a ...
