The adaptation of the CRISPR-Cas9 system as a genome editing technique has generated much excitement in recent years owing to its ability to manipulate targeted genes and genomic regions that are complementary to a programmed single guide RNA (sgRNA)...
We present GuideScan software for the design of CRISPR guide RNA libraries that can be used to edit coding and noncoding genomic regions. GuideScan produces high-density sets of guide RNAs (gRNAs) for single- and paired-gRNA genome-wide screens. We a...
We present SplashRNA, a sequential classifier to predict potent microRNA-based short hairpin RNAs (shRNAs). Trained on published and novel data sets, SplashRNA outperforms previous algorithms and reliably predicts the most efficient shRNAs for a give...
Microalgae are a promising feedstock for biodiesel due to their rapid growth, high lipid content and ability to use non-arable land and wastewater. This review synthesises recent advances in artificial intelligence (AI)-driven strain optimisation, en...
Biomanufacturing stands as a cornerstone of sustainable industrial development, necessitating a shift toward non-food carbon feedstocks to alleviate agricultural resource competition and advance a circular bioeconomy. Methanol, a renewable one‑carbon...
Specific glycosylation patterns on exosome surfaces represent novel diagnostic biomarkers for cancer liquid biopsy. Lectins can induce exosome aggregation through multiple bindings with exosomal glycoproteins. In this work, we developed a one-pot lec...
CRISPR-based diagnostics have gained increasing attention as biosensing tools able to address limitations in contemporary molecular diagnostic tests. To maximize the performance of CRISPR-based assays, much effort has focused on optimizing the chemis...
BACKGROUND: Genome editing in human iPS cells is a powerful approach in regenerative medicine. CRISPR-Cas9 is the most common genome editing tool, but it often induces byproduct insertions and deletions in addition to the desired edits. Therefore, ge...
Despite advances in determining the factors influencing cleavage activity of a CRISPR-Cas9 single guide RNA (sgRNA) at an (off-)target DNA sequence, a comprehensive assessment of pertinent physico-chemical/structural descriptors is missing. In partic...
Genome editing technologies have emerged as the keystone of biotechnological research, enabling precise gene modification. The field has evolved rapidly through revolutionary advancements, transitioning from early explorations to the breakthrough of ...
