Addgene is proud to present our updated CRISPR Guide!
If you’ve ever been looking for just the right CRISPR vectors on Addgene and found instead ones that were… pretty close, or at least close enough, you’ve found yourself with a common dilemma. Request the vectors you can find and use them as-is, saving time and effort but risking ...
CRISPR is a sleek acronym for a real mouthful of a phrase: Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats. That contrast of simplicity and complexity is reflected in the biology, too. CRISPR is an elegant bacterial immune system and an efficient gene editing tool… but ...
Prime editing is a versatile genome editing technology that allows precise modifications of DNA (replacements, small insertions, and deletions) without introducing DNA double-strand breaks (Anzalone et al., 2019; Chen & Liu, 2023). This method uses a prime editor (typically ...
Have you ever designed a CRISPR guide RNA and wondered why it is limited to only 20 bases, or why it’s so important to choose a target sequence with a nearby protospacer-adjacent motif (PAM)? Cas9 is becoming an ever more ubiquitous tool for genome engineering, and studying its ...
FITS In vitro CRISPR screens in immune cells have identified many putative regulators of immunity. However, in vitro screens cannot faithfully model the complex spatial, cellular, metabolic, and cytokine microenvironment that exists in vivo. Over the past five years, in vivo ...
As we celebrate twenty years at Addgene, we are sharing stories of our repository’s positive impact on science and scientists around the globe. Our first story focuses on a technology that has changed virtually all of biology…CRISPR.
