A vast search of natural diversity has led scientists at MIT's McGovern Institute and the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard ...
Advances in the gene-editing technology known as CRISPR-Cas9 over the past 15 years have yielded important new insights into the roles that specific genes play in many diseases. But to date this ...
An ancient RNA-guided system with potential to expand gene-editing capabilities has been identified. Researchers at MIT’s McGovern Institute and the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard (both MA, USA) ...
Even without deep computational skills, scientists can use the CRISPRware program to quickly browse entire libraries of precomputed guide RNAs for six model organisms, zoom in on their gene or region ...

On June 11, 2025, the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit affirmed the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) decision invalidating two patents owned by Agilent Technologies. The ...
Peking University, June 27, 2025: To overcome the inherent challenge of translation termination interference caused by stop codon reprogramming in mammalian cells, researchers from Peking University ...
In modern functional genomics, understanding how specific genes control cellular behavior requires both targeted intervention and high-resolution analysis. That’s where Perturb-Seq comes in—a method ...
A graphic representation of a round, lumpy, blue protein and a single, comblike, purple strand of RNA interacting with a twisted, double, blue strand of DNA that separates where it meets the RNA. A ...
How life begins remains an unsolved question. One key component might be RNA, a molecular cousin of DNA found in every form of life on Earth, and now scientists say they have shown how it could have ...
