CRISPR gene editing used to cure a mouse of a liver disorder and is the first disease cured in a living animal using CRISPR
Using the new CRISPR gene-editing system based on bacterial proteins, MIT researchers have cured mice of a rare liver disorder caused by a single genetic mutation. the first evidence that this gene-editing technique, known as CRISPR, can reverse disease symptoms in living animals. CRISPR, which offers an easy way to snip out mutated DNA and …
