Recent advancements in gene therapy have unveiled new possibilities for treating Huntington’s Disease (HD), a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the progressive decline of motor and cognitive functions. This condition is caused by the expansion of CAG repeats...
In a pioneering study published in *Science*, a team of researchers led by Peter H. Yoon and Jennifer A. Doudna from the University of California, Berkeley, has made a remarkable discovery in the realm of CRISPR technology. The team has identified an ancestral clade...
Overview This review article discusses the therapeutic potential of gene editing, focusing on mRNA-based delivery systems. It highlights the advancements in gene editing technologies like CRISPR-Cas systems and base editors, and examines their applications in treating...
“Everything in the last 14 years of genome editing has been based on CRISPR. We have been whipping this horse for a decade and a half, but we need more programmable functions with complexity beyond the molecular scissors that cut RNA and DNA,” says Patrick Hsu, PhD,...
A recent study published in Nature Biomedical Engineering presents a new method for more efficient and precise integration of large genes into mammalian genomes. The research, led by Smriti Pandey, Xin D. Gao, and their team, introduces prime-editing-assisted...
