We've long assumed our species evolved from a tidy, single stream of ancestors. But life on Earth is never quite so straightforward, especially not when it comes to the most socially complex species ...

To make a gene-editing tool more precise and easier to control, engineers split it into two pieces that only come back together when a third molecule is added. To make a gene-editing tool more precise ...

Researchers have found that splitting the gene editor used in traditional CRISPR technology creates a more precise tool that can be switched on and off, with significantly less chance of causing ...

A group of engineers at Rice University has devised a novel approach to enhance the precision and control of a gene-editing tool. This innovative method involves splitting the tool into two components ...

University of Zurich scientists demonstrated that they could reassemble and express large genes using a new dual adeno-associated viral (AAV) vector technology that depends on mRNA trans-splicing.

HOUSTON – (Sept. 21, 2023) – To make a gene-editing tool more precise and easier to control, Rice University engineers split it into two pieces that only come back together when a third small molecule ...
