Epigenome editing is an emerging technology used to regulate gene function by controlling epigenetic states at specific locations on the genome. This method is distinct from traditional genetic ...

A recent study led to the development of a powerful epigenetic editing technology. The system unlocks the ability to precisely program chromatin modifications at any specific position in the genome, ...

A defanged form of CRISPR, which doesn’t slice or nick DNA, but rather alters the epigenome — the layers of chemical coding that sit on top of DNA and control the activity of genes — has aced its ...

Sizable investments. High-profile appearances at industry events. Unique development platforms. These elements would augur well for companies of any kind—and companies hoping to bring epigenome ...

It will be interesting to see where companies developing therapeutics based on epigenome editing technology choose to focus their development efforts over the next few years. For Moonwalk Biosciences ...

Understanding how genes are regulated at the molecular level is a central challenge in modern biology. This complex mechanism is mainly driven by the interaction between proteins called transcription ...

In a recent study posted to the preprint server Research Square* while under review for publication in Epigenetics & Chromatin, researchers develop and characterize a highly specific EpiEditing system ...

Leading epigenome editing company Tune Therapeutics announced the completion of over $175 million in financing led by New Enterprise Associates, Yosemite, Regeneron Ventures, and Hevolution Foundation ...

In a study published in Nature Biotechnology, researchers have enhanced the genome editing capabilities of Obligate Mobile Element Guided Activity (OMEGA)-IscB, an endonuclease protein, through ...

Understanding how genes are regulated at the molecular level is a central challenge in modern biology. This complex mechanism is mainly driven by the interaction between proteins called transcription ...

This study sought to examine the ethical and practical questions of epigenome editing and its use for therapeutic purposes, especially in the context of transgenerational epigenetic inheritance and ...

Creative depiction of the epigenetic editing toolkit: each building represents the epigenetic state of a single gene (dark windows are silenced genes, lit up windows are active genes). The crane ...
