Webinar
Gene Editing-Beyond CRISPR
Life Sciences
Gene editing techniques have witnessed significant traction since CRISPR / CaS9 was discovered. The editing technology has complexities and challenges like the need for palindromic sequence before & after the gene of interest, purification, and expression of CaS nuclease, delivery of gRNA, acting in a non-specific manner resulting in off-shoot mutations and cell toxicity. Despite these limitations, there was a multi-fold interest in the research community to capitalize CRISPR/ CaS9 tool in editing targeted gene sequences.
In recent times, technologies such as TALEN, ZFN, NgAgO, Lambda Red had emerged as novel gene-editing tools having wider applicability with sequence specificity.
In this webinar learn about:
- What are the limitations of CRISPR/CaS9 as a gene-editing tool and approaches to overcome these?
- What is the penetration level of new gene-editing tools across therapy areas?
- How will this penetration evolve in the next few years across different therapy areas?
- What is the evolving landscape of – innovations, key players and start-ups, and partnerships?
