Scientists have made a significant breakthrough in agricultural biotechnology by using CRISPR/Cas9 to edit the potato genome, resulting in plants with increased resistance to both biotic and ...

A powerful form of DNA-editing machinery discovered in bacteria might allow us to make much bigger changes to genomes than is currently possible with CRISPR-based techniques. However, it isn’t ...

Scientists introduced CRISPR to the world as a gene-editing tool in summer 2012, when landmark papers from two independent groups demonstrated how the system could be wielded to make cuts in DNA.

The regulation of RNA by CRISPR/Cas9 mediated gene editing technology is currently a hot research topic. The tetraploid cultivated potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is one of the most important crops ...

Vertex Pharmaceuticals plans to sell a gene-editing treatment for sickle-cell disease. A patent on CRISPR could stand in the way. That’s a real nice CRISPR cure you have there. It would be a ...
