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 ...

The core components of CRISPR-based genome-editing therapies are bacterial proteins called nucleases that can stimulate ...

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 ...

CRISPR-Cas systems have been exploited for targeted genome editing. Applying the CRISPR-Cas9 system to edit high GC content genomes has been challenging due to its high off-target activity.

Their discovery, known as Crispr-Cas9 "genetic scissors", is a way of making specific and precise changes to the DNA contained in living cells. They will split the prize money of 10 million krona ...
