Profluent Announces AI Gene Editor Generator OpenCRISPR to Enable Creating Bespoke Cures for Diseases
Profluent, a California-based artificial intelligence (AI)-first protein design company, announced its AI model that can generate CRISPR-like proteins that do not occur in nature on Tuesday. CRISPR or Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats is a complex containing important proteins that scientists can use for precise gene editing...

HIV Can Develop Resistance To Gene-Editing Tool
Mutating HIV with the gene-editing platform CRISPR/Cas9 may inhibit viral replication, but it can also lead to the creation of viruses that are resistant to gene editing and more difficult to target, scientists say.
