New CRISPR-Cas, Gene Editing Systems, Discovered in Vast DNA Sequence Dataset
Lab Manager Magazine This work led to the discovery of the first CRISPR– (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats) Cas9 protein in the archaeal domain, a sister group to bacteria. The team also found two previously unknown simple bacterial CRISPR-Cas systems. A new tool for genetically engineering the oldest branch of life Cystic fibrosis, sickle-cell anemia could be corrected in embryos with new CRISPR variant |
