Expanding the Genome Editing Toolbox with Metagenomics
Time: 11:20 am
day: Day One
Details:
- Through metagenomics, reconstructed genomes from unknown organisms are searched to discover novel nucleases of all types
- High throughput characterization processes enable rapid development of effective and precise gene editing tools with minimal engineering required
- Uncovering next-generation technologies: novel CRISPR nucleases, base editors, and transposases
