Variants of uncertain significance fundamentally limit the clinical utility of genetic information. The challenge they pose is epitomized by BRCA1, a tumour suppressor gene in which …
Recent advances in the development of genome editing technologies based on programmable nucleases have substantially improved our ability to make precise changes …

The type II clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR- associated (Cas) system has emerged recently as a powerful method to manipulate the …
We and others recently demonstrated that the readily programmable CRISPR/Cas9 system can be used to edit the Drosophila genome. However, most applications to date have relied …

We have adapted a bacterial CRISPR RNA/Cas9 system to precisely engineer the Drosophila genome and report that Cas9-mediated genomic modifications are efficiently …
Here, we present a simple and highly efficient method for generating and detecting mutations of any gene in Drosophila melanogaster through the use of the CRISPR/Cas9 …
