Researchers funded by the U.S. Navy have used gene-editing technology to make house spiders produce red fluorescent silk. This might seem like a quirky scientific novelty, but the breakthrough is a ...

Researchers identified AlCas12a, a compact, versatile enzyme that improves CRISPR gene editing and enables faster molecular ...

For the first time, the tools to rewrite human biology are moving from speculative fiction into regulated clinics and ...

They look like ordinary horses, with their honey brown coats and white patches. But these 10-month-old foals in Argentina are the world's first gene-edited horses, according to scientists. Experts say ...

Researchers have, for the first time ever, used CRISPR gene editing on spiders. While the genetically-modified critters lack the ability to give you spidey senses, they do spin glowing silk. In a ...

Food made from pigs engineered to be resistant to a porcine virus are as safe and nutritious to eat as pork currently on the ...

Researchers have, for the first time ever, used CRISPR gene editing on spiders. While the genetically-modified critters lack the ability to give you spidey senses, they do spin glowing silk. In a ...

CRISPR-Cas 9 is a gene-editing tool that made it possible to rewrite any organism's genetic code and tackle genetic diseases more effectively. Known as genetic scissors, CRISPR identifies a DNA ...

The gene-editing technique known as CRISPR is promising to revolutionize medicine. Some researchers are trying to help make it available for people with very rare genetic disorders. A gene-editing ...

Scientists used CRISPR to disable the NRF2 gene, restoring chemotherapy sensitivity in lung cancer cells and slowing tumor growth. The technique worked even when only a fraction of tumor cells were ...
