Scientists Develop TATSI Technology to Accelerate Gene Editing |
|
A recent study published in Nature reveals a technology designed to enhance the efficiency of plant gene editing called Transposase-Assisted Target Site Integration (TATSI). This method used transposable elements to integrate custom DNA into specific locations in plant genomes. By improving the precision and frequency of DNA integration, TATSI aims to make the production of genetically enhanced crops faster and more cost-effective.
