How can altering DNA help defeat one of the world’s deadliest diseases? This video explores how scientists are using CRISPR ...

But to date this technology -- which allows scientists to use a 'guide' RNA to modify DNA sequences and evaluate the effects -- is able to target, delete, replace, or modify only single gene ...

When the researchers inserted these sequences — instructions for a Cas9 protein and a ‘guide RNA’ — into human cells, many of the gene editors were able to precisely cut their intended ...
