CRISPR-Cas systems are adaptive immune systems found in prokaryotes that defend against invading nucleic acids through CRISPR RNA-guided cleavage. Type V CRISPR-Cas (Cas12) systems, in particular, ...

Brown’s Giuliani RNA Center and the Rhode Island Life Science Hub co-hosted a symposium focused on how scientists can work together to turn RNA discoveries into solutions. PROVIDENCE, R.I. [Brown ...

The investment from Brown parents Giammaria and Sabrina Giuliani will support scholars seeking to unlock the potential of RNA to make a positive impact on human health.

Even gene drives aimed at controlling malaria-carrying mosquitoes rely on CRISPR’s precision. Among CRISPR’s many variants, the compact Type V Cas12 enzymes—key players in genome editing, diagnostics, ...

Collaborative research by the University of Tokyo and RIKEN Center for Biosystems Dynamics Research has led to the development of a new method for simultaneously synthesizing all transfer RNA (tRNA) ...
