They Didn't Make Dire Wolves, They Made Something…Else

I feel like this video is an important one to share. I'm glad he also shed some light on the importance of publicly funded research, people don't seem to realize just how much of the science that comes out of private companies are built on studies from academia.
Trying to balance my natural "Oh, wow, it's Jurassic Park!" with a healthy dose of "Oh, shit, it's Jurassic Park."

The operative question isn’t “is it real?” It is “why?” #ethics #crispr #genetics

"Vitellotag" - looks like a potentially transformative method to deliver CRISPR products into difficult oocytes (
!), yet I can't find any comments on social media. Anyone tried it? What am I missing? https://journals.biologists.com/dev/article/151/20/dev202857/362029/VitelloTag-a-tool-for-high-throughput-cargo #vitellotag #CRISPR
Klingt fast zu gut, um wahr zu sein: Ein sofort einsatzfähiges Tool für simples, vielseitiges und günstiges #GenomeEditing in #Bakterien. Das EASY-#CRISPR-System eines französisch-japanischen Teams ermöglicht genau dies … Andrea Pitzschke geht ins Detail: https://www.laborjournal.de/editorials/3214.php

Hoy en @radio5_rne he comentado con Manuel @searavalero el avance biomédico logrado por unos investigadores japoneses que consiguieron eliminar el cromosoma 21 extra de células de personas con síndrome de Down mediante #CRISPR Lo conté también en @theconversationes

He conversado con @mruizbanos en su programa #Ágora de @aragonradio sobre esta eliminación del cromosoma 21 extra característico del síndrome de #Down mediante una estrategia experimental usando las herramientas #CRISPR de momento solo en células humanas.

Hoy reflexiono desde la ética en el observatorio de bioética de la Fundación Pablo VI del avance conceptual que nos llega desde Japón: usar #CRISPR para eliminar la trisomía del cromosoma 21 causante del síndrome de #Down ¿Debemos explorar esta posible terapia? Yo digo que sí.

La versatilidad de las herramientas de edición genética #CRISPR ha hecho posible que unos investigadores japoneses diseñen una estrategia para eliminar el tercer cromosoma 21 de la trisomía causante del síndrome de #Down. Te lo explico en @theconversationes

La banana perfetta esiste, ed è figlia della genetica. A marzo arrivano (non in Italia) le prime banane modificate con CRISPR che non diventano marroni quando le tagliate. Stesso gusto, stessa consistenza, ma vita più lunga e zero sprechi. E presto ci saranno anche versioni resistenti al temibile fungo che minaccia le piantagioni globali. La rivoluzione gialla è servita, ma piacerà a tutti?

In this proof-of-principle study, the researchers aimed to cut or cleave the extra copy of chromosome 21 (that causes Down syndrome) with CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing tools. They did so in cell lines such as skin fibroblasts and pluripotent stem cells.

Feinschliff für die #CRISPR-Technologie: Forschende vom @Helmholtz_HIRI & HZI haben den Wirkmechanismus des Anti-CRISPR-Proteins AcrVIB1 entschlüsselt. Zukünftig könnten dadurch CRISPR-Systeme in verschiedenen Anwendungen reguliert oder temporär deaktiviert werden. https://www.helmholtz-hzi.de/media-center/newsroom/news-detailseite/die-genschere-feinjustieren/
