In this episode, Ayesha discusses a new tool that uses CRISPR to modulate gene expression without editing DNA sequences. Dubbed “CRISPRoff,” the technology targets the epigenome to silence genes involved in diseases, with applications in cancer, AML and other conditions with a heritable component.

These modifications regulate gene expression without changing the sequence or structure of DNA. The tool could also prove to be safer than conventional CRISPR-based gene therapies as it does not involve DNA editing, and thus would not cause potentially harmful off-target genomic changes. pyogenes dCas9.

Rolf Turk , Senior Manager, Genomics Medicine at Integrated DNA Technologies, examines how CRISPR is being used to enhance cancer therapies. While type II (Cas9) is mainly used for gene-editing applications, CRISPR detecting tools primarily rely on type V (Cas12) and type VI (Cas13) collateral activity.

The Human Genome Project recently marked 20 years since the publication of the first full sets of human genomic sequences, an endeavor that spanned well over a decade. Today, new next-generation sequencing technologies allow for the sequencing of complex genomes within just a day or two.

This difference could be mitigated when the scientists used a gene editing technique to either reduce KDM6A protein levels in the female-derived neurons, or increase KDM6A levels in neurons from males. Increasing KDM6A expression in male mice led them to be more resilient to the effects of amyloid beta plaques. KDM6A Variant.

The pandemic propelled the life science and healthcare sectors onto center stage, and they rose to the occasion against the most unprecedented health challenge in recent times. While COVID-19 has undoubtedly been the biggest story in the life science industry in 2020, it was a busy and positive year in many other areas.
