The vast majority of human genetic diseases are caused by single-nucleotide substitutions or point mutations rather than small insertions/deletions (indels) or large chromosomal rearrangements in the ...

Cytosine and adenosine base editors (CBEs and ABEs) are integral to molecular breeding, enable precise modification of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in plants, which are crucial for agronomic ...

A new study has made significant strides in plant genome editing by developing an A-to-K base editing system for rice and tomato. This technology enables precise genetic alterations, facilitating the ...
