A team of CiRA researchers has uncovered the crucial role of EIF3D—a protein translational regulator—in primed pluripotency.

Scientists have categorized different types of CRISPR systems into two classes based on how their ... highlighting the approach’s potential to screen for bacteria amenable to genome editing without ...

An INRS research team has identified a new family of enzymes that can make precise cuts in single-stranded DNA. A few years ...

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.

But CRISPR's use isn't limited to only genetic diseases. Several gene-editing companies are also targeting various types of cancer. In particular, CRISPR is being used to develop chimeric antigen ...

This study “harnesses CRISPR pooled screening technology to help us figure out where the functional regions in the noncoding genome [are],” he explained. Gersbach and colleagues created lentiviral ...
