The CRISPR Cas9 System was first discovered as part of the bacterial adaptive immune response against viruses, but in recent years it’s revolutionized our techniques for genome editing. The Cas9 complex is formed of two components. A protein called Cas9 that can cut double stranded DNA, and a guide RNA, that binds to a specific …Read More >

This week, we delve into Adenovirus Vaccines as part of our “How Does It Work?” 3D MoA animation series examining biotech topics on a molecular level. In 2020, the World Health Organization declared the Covid-19 outbreak a pandemic, but not all viruses are bad news. Adenoviruses are a family of viruses that can be used …Read More >

In this week’s installment of our “How Does It Work?” video series, we’ll explore Antisense Oligonucleotide Therapy. Errors in DNA, known as gene mutations, can originate harmful proteins that cause disease. However, we can target the mRNA involved in the formation of specific disease associated proteins by using drugs called antisense oligonucleotides. They work by …Read More >
