Easy DNA Editing Remaking Biologic Organisms

 7-22-2015  Easy DNA Editing Will Remake the World

  The stakes, however, have changed.  Everyone at the Napa meeting had access to a gene-editing technique called Crispr-Cas9.  The first term is an acronym for “clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats,” a description of the genetic basis of the method; Cas9 is the name of a protein that makes it work.  Technical details aside, Crispr-Cas9 makes it easy, cheap and fast to move genes around--any genes, in any living thing, from bacteria to people.  https://www.wired.com/2015/07/crispr-dna-editing-2/
