An explanation of how the cutting-edge gene editing tool works. Sweeping ICE Arrests in Blow to Immigration Crisis Dramatic video shows Royal Navy warship HMS Dragon shooting down supersonic ...

Discover how CRISPR-Cas9 technology is revolutionizing spider silk production with red fluorescent fibers and advancing genetic research.

Scientists used CRISPR/Cas9 to increase gene expression in rice by changing its upstream regulatory DNA. While other studies have used the technology to knock out or decrease the expression of ...

The University of Bayreuth's Biomaterials research group has, for the first time, successfully applied the CRISPR-Cas9 gene-editing tool to spiders. Following the genetic modification, the spiders ...

Through genome editing using CRISPR/Cas9, researchers stably create euglena mutants that can produce wax esters with improved cold flow, making the esters suitable as feedstock for biofuels.

Nexiguran ziclumeran (nex-z) is an investigational therapy based on CRISPR-Cas9 (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats and associated Cas9 endonuclease) targeting the gene ...
