Latest 10 Inventions using CRISPR gene Editing
CRISPR: “CRISPR” stands for Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats, which are the hallmark of a bacterial defense system which forms the basis for the popular CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing technology. CRISPR-Cas9 is…
World’s smallest tape recorder is built from microbes
Through a few clever molecular hacks, researchers at Columbia University Medical Center have converted a natural bacterial immune system into a microscopic data recorder, laying the groundwork for a new class of…
Scientists Created Low-Fat Pigs by Editing Their Genes With CRISPR
Chinese scientists have created low-fat pigs using new genetic engineering techniques. In a paper published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, the scientists report that they have created 12…
CRISPR stores a Movie into the DNA of Bacteria
For the first time, a primitive movie has been encoded in – and then played back from – DNA in living cells. The research team shows in foundational proof-of-principle experiments that the…
