Background mutations: Why CRISPR-edited genes have to work together with thousands of naturally-evolved genes

For tens of thousands of years, evolution shaped tomatoes through natural mutations. Then, humans came along. For centuries, we’ve bred and cherry-picked tomatoes with our preferred traits. Today, CRISPR genome editing allows us to make new crop mutations that improve traits even further. However, individual mutations, whether natural or engineered,…

No human genome has ever been read in its entirety before. This year, that might change

Before the end of 2023, you should be able to read something remarkable. It will be the story of a single individual, who they are and where they come from – and it will offer hints about what their future holds. It probably won’t be the most entertaining read on…

At-home bohacking using CRISPR to edit DNA? You can do it with a kit

You may know Jo Zayner, a “biohacker” who has been in the vanguard of scientific self-experimentation for years, from their role in Netflix’s 2019 docuseries Unnatural Selection. The series shows Zayner attempting to edit their DNA by injecting themselves with CRISPR, a gene-editing technology. The action inspired a firestorm of criticism. Zayner…

CRISPR gene editing can treat heart disease and repair damaged tissue after a heart attack

Each year, cardiovascular disease (CVD) — also known as heart disease — accounts for about 32% of all deaths around the world. The most common type of heart disease is coronary artery disease, where blood is not able to flow properly to the heart. If blood flow is completely blocked to the heart, this can cause a heart…

CRISPR co-creator: 2023 sees mobilization of gene editing to develop crops that resist climate change, as world food demand rises

Following on the heels of the initial clinical trial results, the first agricultural applications using Crispr have recently entered the market: A US Food and Drug Administration–approved edit to cattle genes re-creates a slick coat that is occasionally found in nature and allows cows to tolerate increasing temperatures; a Crispr-edited…

CRISPR gene editing is in clinical trials to treat sickle cell disease, cancer, HIV/AIDS and some rare inherited diseases. Here’s what we can expect going forward

Examples of Crispr’s promise arrive frequently, as new clinical trials report their results. Most are still at an early stage, but the sheer breadth of diseases targeted, and the mainly positive results so far, mean it is easy to be optimistic about the future of this technique. Follow the latest…

Newborn Genomes Program: Whole genome sequencing for 100,000 UK babies leads to test for 200 disorders

Every year, several thousand children in the UK are affected by rare genetic diseases, but families often endure years of tests and uncertainty before they receive a diagnosis, as symptoms can develop slowly. By the time a diagnosis is confirmed avoidable damage may have been done. … The list of…

GRCh37 GFF filter transcript isoforms by RefSeq Select tag or longest

GRCh37 GFF filter transcript isoforms by RefSeq Select tag or longest 0 Dear all, I tried to filter the “RefSeq Select” transcript isoforms in the GRCh37.p13 human genome annotation gff (GCF_000001405.25_GRCh37.p13_genomic.gff.gz). Specifically my goal is to retain for each gene a transcript isoform with a tag=RefSeq Select attribute if exists,…
