L'ère des bébés modifiés ? Des chercheurs franchissent un cap dans l'édition génétique d'embryons humains sans endommager leur ADN
Le base editing permet désormais de réécrire une seule lettre d'ADN dans un embryon humain. Cette forme d'édition génétique a révélé un gène clé du développement embryonnaire.
