New prime assembly method enables long and precise DNA insertions
Genomic editing holds great potential yet continues to have its limitations. Most current methods either rely on untargeted gene delivery or short DNA edits that need to be individualized to each patient.
A new method of genetic editing, prime assembly, sew long fragments of DNA into living cells and promise to bring universal gene therapies closer.The entry Prime assembly: the Nature method that corrects several mutations at once in living cells appears first in Merca2.
Prime Assembly Expands Genome Editing with Precise, Large-Scale DNA Integration
A new genome-editing method, prime assembly, precisely inserts long DNA sequences into targeted genomic locations, potentially enabling mutation-agnostic gene therapies for diverse genetic diseases with fewer individualized edits. The post Prime Assembly Expands Genome Editing with Precise, Large-Scale DNA Integration appeared first on GEN - Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology News.
