Precise genome-editing platforms are versatile tools for generating specific, site-directed DNA insertions, deletions, and substitutions. The continuous enhancement of these tools has led to a revolution in the life sciences, which promises to deliver novel therapies for genetic disease. Precise genome-...
WASHINGTON, Jan. 23 (Xinhua) -- The U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH) said Tuesday it will launch an effort aimed at developing tools for safe and effective genome editing in humans. The program, known as Somatic Cell Genome Editing, plans to award researchers about 190 million U....
Because the panel is derived from the genetics of human cancer and was not custom-built according to gRNA design, it is unbiased with respect to the genome editing process and focuses on the highest risk regions of the genome in terms of assessing potential oncogenicity of a genome editing ...

They believe that humans should not play God and that any manipulation of the genome is inherently unethical. This perspective is often rooted in religious beliefs and a reverence for the sanctity of life. On the other hand, proponents of human genome editing argue that it has the potential ...
Current genome-editing tools mainly include ZFN, TALEN and CRISPR/Cas9, which have been successfully applied to all species tested including zebrafish, humans, mice, rats, monkeys, pigs, cattle, sheep, goats and others. The application of genome editing has quickly swept through the entire ...
Fundamental research into the ways by which bacteria defend themselves against viruses has recently led to the development of powerful new techniques that make it possible to perform gene editing—that is, precisely altering genetic sequences—in living cells, including those of humans, at much highe...
Based on engineered or bacterial nucleases, the development of genome editing technologies has opened up the possibility of directly targeting and modifying genomic sequences in almost all eukaryotic cells. Genome editing has extended our ability to eluc
CRISPR Genome Editing 基因编辑技术 点击收听10月18日、19日《空中英语教室》文章朗读音频 It began with the investigation into a type of bacteria that can cause serious health problems in humans. Emmanuelle Charpentier, a French scientis...
Foundational to the field of gene editing was the discovery that targeted DNA double strand breaks (DSBs) could be used to stimulate the endogenous cellular repair machinery. Breaks in the DNA are typically repaired through one of two major pathways—homology-directed repair (HDR) or nonhomologous...
