Few technologies have made as big a splash in recent years as CRISPR/Cas9, and rightfully so. CRISPR/Cas9, or clustered regularly interspaced palindromic repeats (CRISPR) and associated genes, is ...

Improving CRISPR/Cas9 Targeting One of the two major components of this system, Cas9, is typically expressed on a transfectable plasmid, although a cassette can instead be integrated into the genome.

With a goal of breeding resilient crops that are better able to withstand drought and disease, University of California San Diego scientists have developed the first CRISPR-Cas9-based gene drive ...

The emergence of CRISPR-Cas9 genome-editing tools created new opportunities for enhancing plant and crop traits in agricultural biotechnology research. Now, multiplex genome-editing (MGE) technologies ...

CRISPR is having a moment. Why CRISPR-Cas9 is being hailed as the scientific 'Breakthrough of the Year' - Los Angeles Times An easy guide to understanding the new gene editing technology CRISPR-Cas 9.

CRISPR is a technology that can be used to edit genes and, as such, will likely change the world. The essence of CRISPR is simple: it’s a way of finding a specific bit of DNA inside a cell.
