CRISPR-on, CRISPR-off: New game-changing gene editing technique is entirely reversible
US researchers have unveiled a significant upgrade to the CRISPR gene editing system, which, unlike its predecessor, can target specific genes with high precision and make completely reversible changes.
The new gene editing technology, developed by Whitehead Institute Member Jonathan Weissman and University of California San Francisco assistant professor Luke Gilbert, is called CRISPRoff.
It is capable of controlling a gene with laser-like precision, while leaving the broader strand of DNA unchanged. Furthermore, the edits are not only stable enough to be inherited through hundreds of cell divisions but are also fully reversible.
“We can do this for multiple genes at the same time without any DNA damage, with a great deal of homogeneity, and in a way that can be reversed. It’s a great tool for controlling gene expression,” Weissman says.
Here we go! Everything is possible and reverse!
If you want to buy yourself some nice pair of wings, just go to your trusted DNA dealer and buy them.
If you want to have them removed, easy peasy!
If you want to erase an entire race because you don't like them, just pay the required price and they are gone.
This is sick!
Luckily this gives me hope that a forced mRNA vaccination is not irreversible!
