Follow May. 26, 2021 Last week, in the midst of blaring air-raid sirens in Tel Aviv, Jenny Cherniavskaia, a 33-year-old resident of the city, grappled with the biggest crisis of her life, which was taking place thousands of kilometers from Israel. TUT.by, the biggest news site in Belarus – and established by Cherniavskaia’s father, whose death last year from an illness resulted in the transfer of most of the company’s shares to her – was raided and shut down, with a great share of its staff arrested. Her mother, Yulia Chernyavskaya, vanished after being arrested in Minsk, felt unwell ...

 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 complication is that CRISPR editing may lead to other, unintended, genomic changes. These are known...

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 journal Nature Communications. The many potential applications of CRISPR include correcting genetic defec...
