Scientists combine the power of genome-wide screens and machine learning to unlock the secrets of transcriptome engineering with Cas13. Deanna earned their PhD in cellular biology from McGill ...

Scientists at the UCLA Health Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center and the University of Toronto have revealed how a tiny chemical modification in RNA, known as m6A, plays a critical role in the ...

(Cas13 is one of the many Cas enzymes used in CRISPR, but it targets RNA, instead of DNA like Cas9.) They first looked at one example of a Cas13d protein called EsCas13d. Previous studies had ...
