A robust and sensitive assay for simultaneous measurement of transcriptome, chromatin accessibility, and cis-regulatory chromatin contacts

A robust and sensitive assay for simultaneous measurement of transcriptome, chromatin accessibility, and cis-regulatory chromatin contacts

Unmet Need Cis-regulatory elements (cREs) of the genome are non-coding regions that play essential roles in regulating gene expression in development and disease. Importantly, these regions are characterized by the presence of “open” chromatin and…

A CRISPR-based system for modifying the length of 3’ untranslated regions (3’UTR) of an mRNA transcript that offers novel treatment strategies for prostate cancer and other diseases

A CRISPR-based system for modifying the length of 3’ untranslated regions (3’UTR) of an mRNA transcript that offers novel treatment strategies for prostate cancer and other diseases

Unmet Need Abnormal length changes in the 3’ untranslated region (3’UTR) of mRNAs are associated with many diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus, α-thalassemia, facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy, and cancer. While existing technologies can manipulate expression…
