New CRISPR-Based Tool Called PASTE Gene Editing Inserts Large DNA Sequences at Desired Sites

XTalks

Expanding upon the CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing system, researchers at MIT have designed a new technique called PASTE gene editing that can cut out defective genes and replace them with new genes in a safer and more efficient way. The MIT research team turned to a family of enzymes called integrases to meet their goal.
