To do this, they used CRISPR gene editing technology to create the first genetically modified ‘super-spider’. To do this, the team took edited material and injected it into oocytes, which are ...

Researchers have, for the first time ever, used CRISPR gene editing on spiders. While the genetically-modified critters lack the ability to give you spidey senses, they do spin glowing silk.

First ever gene-edited spider spins webs of glowing red silk. By Joshua Hawkins. Published May 24th, 2025 1:30PM EDT. Image: ViniSouza128 / Adobe. ... With CRISPR now in play, ...

Researchers have, for the first time ever, used CRISPR gene editing on spiders. While the genetically-modified critters lack the ability to give you spidey senses, they do spin glowing silk. In a ...

Discover how CRISPR-Cas9 technology is revolutionizing spider silk production with red fluorescent fibers and advancing genetic research.

Scientists have previously completed preclinical studies in DMD mice and monkeys. They report that in mice, HG302 restored dystrophin protein levels up to 70% and improved motor function.

This work is published on bioRxiv in a preprint titled, “Single-AAV CRISPR editing of skeletal muscle in non-human primates with NanoCas, an ultracompact nuclease.”. NanoCas is a novel Cas ...
