Editing the Phenotype: A Revolution for Quantitative Genetics

Precision genome editing: a small revolution for glycobiology.

Precise and stable gene editing in mammalian cell lines has until recently been hampered by the lack of efficient targeting methods. While different gene silencing strategies have had tremendous impact on many biological fields, they have generally not been applied with wide success in the field of glycobiology, primarily due to their low efficiencies, with resultant failure to impose substanti...
