New Gene Editing Proteins Found Outside of CRISPR Systems
“Scientists at MIT’s McGovern Institute and the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard have discovered a new class of programmable DNA modifying systems called OMEGAs (Obligate Mobile Element Guided Activity), which may naturally be involved in shuffling small bits of DNA throughout bacterial genomes. . . . These results suggest the tantalizing possibility that there are many more programmable systems that await discovery and development as useful technologies.” MORE
