New research in Nature shows that the physical twisting of DNA plays an important role in DNA editing mistakes made by CRISPR.
Using nanometer-sized circles of DNA, scientists captured never-before-seen interactions between CRISPR & DNA, providing insights that could eradicate errors altogether.
CRISPR is a powerful DNA-editing tool that has underpinned huge advancements in human healthcare in the last decade. It is a precision tool, but is not perfect, and misplaced DNA edits can compromise ...
