The energy factories in our cells contain their own genes, and genetic mutations in them can cause deadly inherited diseases. These oblong-shaped organelles, or mitochondria, translate genes into ...

Manipulating “thresholds” with mitochondrial gene editing tools. By focusing on the genetic roots of neurodegenerative diseases, mitochondrial DNA editing represents a shift in therapeutic strategies.

A visualization of the A3G editor's crystalline structure, with red arrows indicating locations the engineers modified to change their affinity for binding to DNA. Making the editor more accurate ...

New research dramatically expands the number of naturally occurring versions of CRISPR-associated transposons (CASTs), giving researchers a wealth of potential new tools for large-scale gene editing.

The ability to correct disease-causing genetic mistakes using genome editors holds great promise in medicine, but it is not without risk. When this type of "genetic surgery" is performed on DNA, for ...

For decades, scientists have studied how to control DNA—the molecule that holds the instructions for all life. One of the most powerful tools to emerge from that effort was CRISPR, a system adapted ...
