Intellia?s Journey
Leading the genome
editing revolution
The discovery of CRISPR Adapted from a naturally occurring bacterial immune system, CRISPR is an acronym for Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats. One of the proteins in the CRISPR system is known as CRISPR-associated 9 protein or Cas9 protein, which acts as a pair of ?molecular scissors? to cleave DNA. Researchers have co-opted the bacterial CRISPR system to make specific changes in the DNA of humans, other animals and plants. CRISPR was first harnessed in 2012 as a genome editing tool in the lab. More recently, scientists have begun engineering and testing CRISPR systems to be very specific to a desired genetic target. by Intellia co-founder Jennifer Doudna and her colleague Emmanuelle Charpentier captured the world?s attention for its potential to revolutionize how we treat disease. That opportunity drives Intellia in its mission to transform the lives of people with severe diseases through curative genome editing Also called gene editing. Genome editing collectively refers to a set of technologies, including CRISPR/Cas9, that can be used to cut and modify DNA. Genome editing uses systems to make the DNA change inside the cell. These cells can be edited in the body (in vivo) or outside the body (ex vivo) from a patient or donor. treatments.
