Conservationists and some community members fear that altering mosquito populations could destabilise ecosystems or pose ...

Meet Virginia's transforming economy, where emerging industries promise new opportunities and challenges that will shape the workforce of tomorrow. What does this mean for you?

近日，北京大学化学与分子工程学院本科校友、美国威斯康星麦迪逊大学博士毕业生、目前正在斯坦福大学从事博士后研究的朱彦宇和所在团队研发出一种高时空分辨率的活细胞 DNA 成像技术 Oligo-LiveFISH。该技术基于 sgRNA ...

Apart from ethical considerations, more importantly, ecological & evolutionary role of the species has to be considered when discussing a tool that could wipe out an entire species.

We have developed a simple and universal clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated protein 9 (Cas9)-mediated DNA double-strand break (DSB)-induced GT system ...

The current ethical debate worldwide is mainly concentrating on the dangers of germline intervention and less so on the potential for fighting vector-borne diseases. Gene drive technology has been ...

For in vivo CRISPR-Cas9 delivery, cryo-inactivated non-pathogenic KRAS-mutant NSCLC cells were used as a vector. This cell vehicle allows for highly targeted lung delivery via passive trapping by ...

The CRISPR system cuts genes out of DNA using an enzyme called Cas9. These "molecular scissors" are guided to target DNA by a molecule of RNA. The technology was adapted from a natural defense ...

Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, College of Medicine and Science, Mayo Clinic, Jacksonville, FL (R.S.A., E.W., S.K.D., D.M.). Department of ...

we have developed a targeting vector that allows tissue-specific inactivation of a spatiotemporal gene by modifying a previously developed vector. 15 We show that the CRISPR/Cas9-mediated knockout ...

Researchers are working to reveal potential threats to the efficacy of CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing, even when it appears to be working as planned. A Rice University lab is leading the effort to ...
