Scientists have discovered a new CRISPR mechanism with precise activity, expanding the potential applications of the existing CRISPR toolbox. The CRISPR ‘gene scissors’ have become an important basis ...

CRISPR Therapeutics stays a Hold as CASGEVY launch lags; watch cash burn, revenue delays, and CTX310/CTX611 catalysts for 2026. Click here to read now.

Researchers have identified a specific protein complex inside neurons that tags toxic tau fragments for destruction, offering the clearest explanation yet for why certain brain cells survive while ...

In nature, the best-known CRISPR system, CRISPR-Cas9, cuts any RNA or DNA it recognizes as foreign, and thereby protects bacteria from viral attacks. Another CRISPR system, one that is relatively ...

A novel CRISPR defense mechanism, unlike known nucleases, specifically destroys transfer ribonucleic acids (tRNA) that are vital for protein production to shut down infected cells. (Nanowerk News) ...

CRISPR/Cas9 is a gene editing tool that has revolutionized biomedical research and led to the first FDA-approved CRISPR-based gene therapy. However, until now, the precise mechanism of exactly how ...

Cornell researchers have taken an important step toward harnessing CRISPR gene editing in "targeted, safe and potent" cancer treatment, according to Ailong Ke, professor of chemistry and chemical ...

A novel CRISPR-based technology can spread within bacterial populations to eliminate antibiotic resistance.

Since its breakthrough development more than a decade ago, CRISPR has revolutionized DNA editing across a broad range of fields. Now scientists are applying the technology's immense potential to human ...

Banas is associate director of research at the Gene Editing Institute at ChristianaCare, where Kmiec is founder and executive director. The medical promise of CRISPR gene editing can be seen most ...
