A new AI-powered gene-editing technique could be set to replace CRISPR

TL;DR

A new study has developed what the researchers call the "world's first" simple, modifiable proteins. In case you are unaware, a zinc finger is a small protein structural "motif" characterized by the coordination of one or more zinc ions by a group of amino acid residues. Noyes says that because of this, the team's AI algorithm will be improved to make more accurate groups of zinc fingers that only trigger the needed change
