Gene editing tools and information
CRISPR/Cas9 comprises a set of powerful gene editing tools that are revolutionizing the field of biology, with the promise to create new research models for disease and to, in the future, perhaps prevent or cure disease. These tools are providing unprecedented efficiency and precision to knock out genes in living mammalian cells and also the power to knock in and create novel sequences using homology directed repair (HDR).
The links below include introductions to the technology and some selection guides to help researchers choose the right products for their applications.
