Researchers have developed a machine learning model that predicts Cas9 proteins that can be tailored with designer properties for therapeutic use.

Genome editing has advanced at a rapid pace with promising results for treating genetic conditions-but there is always room for improvement.

Using the CRISPR-Cas9 gene-editing tool, the scientists knocked out these genes in domesticated tomato plants, resulting in fruit with up to 30% higher sugar content without reducing size or yield.

However, CRISPR has also been adapted to do other things too, such as turning genes on or off without altering their sequence. There were ways to edit the genomes of some plants and animals before ...
