Picture CRISPR-Cas9, a gene editing technology, as a GPS-guided scalpel: gRNA directs the Cas9 enzyme, a protein that cuts ...

Researchers have unveiled a way to flip genes back on without slicing into the genome, a shift that could make CRISPR far safer and more flexible. Instead of cutting DNA, the new approach scrubs away ...

In the never-ending quest to discover previously unknown CRISPR gene-editing systems, researchers have scoured microbes in everything from hot springs and peat bogs to poo and even yogurt. Now, thanks ...

Aurora Therapeutics, cofounded by Nobel Prize–winning scientist Jennifer Doudna, plans to use gene editing and a new FDA ...

CRISPR–Cas9-based therapies are widely investigated for their clinical applications. However, there are limitations ...

If the first CRISPR decade was marked by a mad dash to evolve, engineer, and mine the bacterial universe for more and better genome-editing enzymes, so far the second seems to be all about three words ...

Genetic disorders occur due to alterations in the primary genetic material, deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), of an organism.

Aurora Therapeutics has emerged from stealth with $16 million in funding from Menlo Ventures to expand the potential of gene ...

Infection with the pathogenic yeast fungus Candida auris (C. auris) can wreak havoc on the health of hospital patients and ...

Scribe expects to initiate a first-in-human hypercholesterolemia study in mid-2026 with STX-1150, its lead cardiometabolic assetSTX-1150 is designed to deliver durable therapeutic LDL-C lowering with ...
