The versatility of CRISPR allows you to play with DNA in a number of ways, from small edits that change single base pairs, to chromosomal inversions and large deletions. Many of these methods rely on Cas9 or a derivative of Cas9, but the ever-expanding repertoire of CRISPR has ...
Forward genetics screens are a valuable part of the molecular biology toolbox to identify new target genes for drug discovery or to understand the intricacies of molecular pathways. These screens have gotten larger, easier, and more comprehensive thanks to the consistent ...
We recently updated our blog post on Prime Editing, and that meant rereading many of the original papers reporting various prime editing tools. These papers are chock full of great tips to guide your experimental design, especially the design of the RNA sequences you’ll use in ...
Over 75,000 pathogenic genetic variants have been identified in humans and cataloged in the ClinVar database. Previously developed genome editing methods using nucleases and base editors have the potential to correct only a minority of those variants in most cell types. But ...
You’ve probably heard that only 2% of our genome is made of protein-coding genes, and you might be wondering what the rest of our genome could possibly be made up of. The answer is… drum roll please… non-coding RNAs! You probably didn’t see that coming, right? Non-coding RNAs ...
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 ...
