The CRISPR gene editing system holds tremendous promise. It has already revolutionized biomedical research by making gene editing a straightforward process. It involves using a guide RNA molecule that ...

Researchers at ETH Zurich in Basel report they have used CRISPR-Cas technology to decipher how mutations in a cell’s genome affect its function. With their new approach, the researchers can generate ...

Like base editing, prime editing offers a safer way to genome editing by relying on a nickase enzyme that “nicks” one DNA strand at a time, rather than cutting both simultaneously. Then, with the ...

Prime Medicine has surged over 130% in three months, driven by pipeline progress and visibility from recent scientific presentations. PRME's Prime Editing platform targets multi-billion-dollar markets ...

Researchers have combined two gene editing methods. This enables them to quickly investigate the significance of many genetic mutations involved in the development and treatment of cancer. Researchers ...

This figure illustrates the evolution of CRISPR technology from 1987 to 2019, presented in a horizontal timeline format and categorized into four generations, each denoted by a distinct color: The ...

Thank you, guys, for being here. Super excited to have an old friend join us for a new fireside chat. Allan, great to have you. And we all want to learn Prime Medicine and Prime Editing, but I'll let ...
