Genome engineering excelled at small nucleotide changes, but large edits remained challenging. Recent innovations are changing this. We reviewed the field of structural variant engineering Nature Genetics 🧬 Juliane Weller Thomas Vanderstichele @LeopoldParts nature.com/articles/s4158…




I’m delighted to share our work on scrambling the human genome using prime editing, repetitive elements, and recombinases Science Magazine! Raphael Ferreira @LeopoldParts Tom Ellis, george church @SangerInstitute science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… Lots of changes from the preprint. A🧵


Out now in Science Magazine - Jonas and Raphael’s human genome Scramble paper which inadvertently also led to us making the ‘most engineered human genome ever’ (we think so - happy to hear otherwise). Check out Jonas’ thread below. ⬇️


🚨Excited to share our latest work, now out in Nature Biotechnology ! We introduce SEED-Selection, a powerful method that enables high-efficiency enrichment of T cells edited at multiple loci in a single step 🧵👇 🔗 nature.com/articles/s4158…


Our work on nucleic acid sensing in live human cells is out 🧬⚫️🟢! Big thanks to Ahmed mahas Lisa Riedmayr george church ! Make sure to check out Ahmed's thread 👇
