In a demonstration that could help pave the way for gene therapies with fewer side effects, several human cell types have been genetically modified with protein nanoparticles designed at University of ...

Cells contain a blueprint in the form of DNA that dictates what they can make. This blueprint is converted into a message, or mRNA, which is then converted into protein. Although DNA remains the same ...

Researchers at Northwestern University have built a new type of nanoparticle that triples the efficiency of CRISPR gene editing across multiple human cell types, a result that could reshape how ...
