AI-designed protein awakens silenced genes, one by one
The Pharma Data

Cas9 binds and uses RNA as an address-tag. The system allows scientists, by synthesizing a specific “address-tag” RNA, to bring Cas9 to a precise location in genome and therefore cut and splice genes at specific sites. Ruohola-Baker and Levy then fused this designed protein with a disabled version of a protein called Cas9.
