He says, "We have invented a DNA base editing technology named 'Target-AID,' which is superior to conventional techniques such as 'CRISPR-Cas9' in several aspects.

Our genomic DNA is comprised of four bases—cytosine (C), thymine (T), guanine (G) and adenosine (A). These bases join together into approximately 3 billion different base pairs, arranged in a ...

Your DNA is continually damaged by sources both inside and outside your body. One especially severe form of damage called a ...

Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA) are perhaps the most important molecules in cell biology, responsible for the storage and reading of genetic information that underpins all life.

Dr. Liu called the system invented by his group “base editing” because it directly edits the letters, or the bases, that make up DNA. In one test, Luke Koblan, ...

Mitochondrial DNA makes up a small fraction of the total amount of DNA in a cell—16,500 base pairs out of the 3 billion in DNA. But it is more robust than other types of cellular DNA, ...
