 E-Mail CRISPR technology allows researchers to edit genomes by altering DNA sequences and by thus modifying gene function. Its many potential applications include correcting genetic defects, treating and preventing the spread of diseases and improving crops. Genome editing tools, such as the CRISPR-Cas9 technology, can be engineered to make extremely well-defined alterations to the intended target on a chromosome where a particular gene or functional element is located. However, one potential...

Researchers develop tool to accurately evaluate CRISPR genome editing ANI | Updated: May 24, 2021 16:31 IST Washington [US], May 24 (ANI): During a recent study, researchers from the IDC Herzliya and Bar-Ilan University developed a novel software tool to quantify potential CRISPR-induced errors. CRISPR is the technology that allows researchers to edit genomes by altering DNA sequences and by thus modifying gene function. The study was published in the journ...
