CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing exploits the CRISPR-Cas system to modify a genome in a targeted manner. Guided by RNA, the Cas9 endonuclease breaks DNA at a target sequence. Imprecise repair of the ...

Cas9, scientists reconstitute live African swine fever virus from synthetic genomes, accelerating vaccine development for ...

A team of researchers at Karolinska Institutet has developed a novel tool for genetic research. The study, published in ...

A research team investigates how genome editing can be harnessed to accelerate cassava breeding and improve key traits.

When the CRISPR Cas9 protein is added to a cell along with a piece of guide RNA, the Cas9 protein hooks up with the guide RNA and then moves along the strands of DNA until it finds and binds to a ...
