Scientists study a molecular machine that moves jumping genes in DNA, paving the way for a new gene editing tool beyond ...

When scientists discovered how bacteria protect themselves against viral invaders, called phages, in the early 2000s, little ...

CRISPR-based technologies have taken the world by storm thanks to the technique’s ability to edit nucleic acids. Today, researchers are not only working to understand how to better harness the ...

CRISPR-Cas systems provide interference against invading foreign nucleic acids by different mechanisms. In bacteria several different types of antiviral CRISPR-Cas systems are found, which differ ...

The method makes it possible to track the gene recognition of CRISPR-Cas protein complexes, also known as “genetic scissors”, in real time and with the highest resolution.

How Does Crispr Gene-Editing Medicine Work? CRISPR gene-editing works as a precise pair of genetic scissors.
