A new CRISPR-based tool that is directly used on patients' cancer cells can identify genes and regulatory elements driving acute myeloid leukemia (AML), an aggressive blood cancer affecting the bone ...

Researchers from Helmholtz Munich and the Technical University of Munich (TUM) report that they have developed a new tool (Cas13d-NCS) that allows CRISPR RNA molecules that are located within the cell ...

A new CRISPR-based tool that is directly used on patients' cancer cells can identify genes and regulatory elements driving ...

Over the past 10 years, CRISPR has been transformative for research, enabling gene editing that is fast, simple and precise, experts say. The first paper showing that CRISPR could be used to edit the ...

Using a CRISPR-based genetic screen, Cellecta recently identified, for a client, a class of proteins responsible for regulating gene expression of a genetic element present in the 5′-untranslated ...

Building on the CRISPR gene-editing system, MIT researchers have designed a new tool that can snip out faulty genes and replace them with new ones, in a safer and more efficient way. Using this system ...

Scientists mapped out the three-dimensional structure of one of the smallest known CRISPR-Cas13 systems then used that knowledge to modify its structure and improve its accuracy. Small and precise: ...
