Multiple CRISPR technologies are being used to specifically alter or silence genes and inhibit protein production. One of these tools is CRISPRi (CRISPR interference) which blocks genes and gene ...

Guides typically assist tourists with directions, but the experience could be greatly enhanced if they offered personalized services tailored to individual interests. Recently, researchers have ...

Researchers at New York University (NYU), Columbia University, and the New York Genome Center have developed an artificial intelligence (AI) platform that can predict on- and off-target activity of ...

An ancient RNA-guided system with potential to expand gene-editing capabilities has been identified. Researchers at MIT’s McGovern Institute and the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard (both MA, USA) ...

The answer depends on the questions you’re trying to answer, as well as the origin, quantity, and quality of your samples. In this article, we’ll briefly discuss several RNA-seq workflows, how they ...

RNA does more than previously thought: it also operates on the outside of cells. Research by biochemist Jack Li shows that this may be important for how the immune system responds to disease.

A powerful form of DNA-editing machinery discovered in bacteria might allow us to make much bigger changes to genomes than is currently possible with CRISPR-based techniques. However, it isn’t yet ...
