A new CRISPR breakthrough shows scientists can turn genes back on without cutting DNA, by removing chemical tags that act ...

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 ...

A new CRISPR approach can control genes without cutting DNA, opening a safer path for treating genetic diseases. A newly developed form of CRISPR at UNSW Sydney points to a safer way of treating ...

Scientists have used CRISPR to give the goldenberry a modern makeover, shrinking the plant by about a third and making it ...

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 ...

SCD gene therapy approaches using CRISPR, gene therapy, and base editing show different stem cell outcomes in a mouse study.

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 ...
