Scientists have genetically modified reptiles for the first time, to create tiny mutant albino lizards. The team used the CRISPR-Cas-9 technique to edit the DNA of the Anolis sagrei, or brown anole ...

For the first time, CRISPR-Cas9 has been used to create mutant reptiles, researchers reported August 27 in Cell Reports. Typically, scientists inject CRISPR-Cas9 gene-editing reagents into zygotes or ...

An icon in the shape of a lightning bolt. Impact Link Over the past several years, researchers have successfully modified chicken, pig, cow, mouse, and even fish genes using Crispr technology. Crispr, ...

Meet the world's first gene-edited reptiles: albino lizards roughly the size of your index finger. Researchers used CRISPR-Cas9 to make the lizards, providing a technique for gene editing outside of ...

Green anoles are less frequently seen near the ground as brown anoles become more prolific, instead evolving to a better suited life in the tree canopy. (Augustus Hoff/WUFT News) She sits, her sleek, ...

For the first time, reptiles have been gene-edited with CRISPR technology. Scientists at University of Georgia bred four brown anole lizards to be albino pink instead of their typical brown, according ...

CRISPR-Cas9, a technology that allows scientists to edit an organism’s genes, has been used to do everything from experimenting with lab-grown meat to breeding climate-change resistant crops. Now, ...
