Digital Genome Engineering CapBuild: democratizing AAV capsid engineering through the web Gene therapy is changing the way we treat diseases. These new therapies target and correct the underlying issue in the patient’s DNA. This is done by delivering a therapeutic cargo (typically a
Research Project Increasing the vehicle capacity for gene therapy Gene therapy or living drugs is one of the most exciting areas of biotechnology, and we’d like to tell you about some of the progress we’ve made in expanding the potential
Explainer Scissors, glue or white-out? Using the CRISPR pencil-case Since the original demonstration that CRISPR-Cas9 can be used to induce targeted changes in a cell's genome, there has been an explosion of new versions and variations of different CRISPR systems. While some
Scientific publication New software-guided approach streamlines genome editing capability CSIRO has developed a computational tool for a new genome editing approach that makes research and clinical applications more effective. The approach consists of a new gene editing strategy developed by the University
GenomeWeb GenomeWeb: CSIRO Develops Software to Detect Foreign DNA Without Reference Genomes CHICAGO – Bioinformaticians with the Australian e-Health Research Centre at the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation have developed a computing algorithm to detect foreign DNA in whole-genome sequences by looking for shifts in
Scientific publication Detecting foreign DNA with INSIDER The Transformational Bioinformatics Group have published a new software, INSIDER, for detecting foreign DNA in the genome. The tool helps streamline the process of finding genetic elements that are different to the rest
Scientific publication A Score Card for Genome Editing Techniques (GOANA) The Transformational Bioinformatics Group published a new software (GOANA [1]) to score genome editing approaches: It helps make Gene Therapy become a reality, by detecting and comparing rare mutations that may be accidentally
