U.K. approves CRISPR gene editing to create GMO humans

November 30, 2023 -

The gene-editing therapy, which was reportedly designed to treat blood disorders, could appear on the market by as soon as December.

The way CRISPR works is that it functions like a pair of "genetic scissors," chopping up sections of DNA so scientists can edit them by "snipping" specific portions and replacing those portions with new, artificial segments.

According to a 2012 paper that first announced the technology, CRISPR is basically a cheap ...

CRISPR gene editing found to cause hundreds of “unintended mutations”, warn scientists

June 05, 2017 -

As a relatively new technology, there are a lot of unknowns when it comes to gene editing. Known for being precise, efficient, and quick, the CRISPR-Cas9 method has shown some promise. For example, scientists have used it to edit HIV out of some living organisms and modify mosquitoes to get rid of malaria.

However, this is far from a perfect science, and now a study published in the journal Nature Methods shows that it can cause unintended mutations in genomes....

Gene-edited humans? First CRISPR-based gene therapy gets approved for clinical use in the U.K.

Gene therapy for inherited blood disorders

The exa-cel (short for exagamglogene autotemcel) therapy, which goes by the brand name Casgevy, is based on the gene-editing tool CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats), which was first reported in 2012 in the journal Science. This innovation won scientists Jennifer Doudna and Emmanuelle Charpentier the 2020 Nobel Prize in Chemistry.

After rigorous assessment of exa-cel's effectiveness, quality ...

CRISPR gene editing may wipe out human geniuses and dumb down human civilization to “conforming” average

January 04, 2017 -

CRISPR and associated "gene editing" technologies have come under fire for many of the same reasons as traditional genetic engineering, but now Dr. Jim Kozubek has raised a new concern: CRISPR may actually enable doctors to eliminate certain neurological and psychiatric "diseases" that have actually been the key to producing many of humanity's great minds throughout history.

Kozubek is author of Modern Prometheus: Editing the Human Genome with Crispr-Cas9....

Crispr gene “edited” food crops the new wave of GMOs… are they safer or just as dangerous?

August 16, 2018 -

Now, the food industry has found a new way to cut corners, and they’re trying to convince people that this type of genetic editing is somehow a better alternative to the current GMOs.

It’s certainly better for their bottom line, as the costs for developing and marketing the food that results from gene editing are reported to be as much as 90 percent lower than those of traditional genetically modified crops.

One of the more popular approaches to gene editing is ...

Genetically engineered salad greens coming to grocery stores — and they won’t be labeled

June 09, 2023 - CRISPR-edited food available to U.S. consumers.

Gene-edited mustard greens coming to U.S. stores

Pairwise scientists used the gene-editing technology known as CRISPR, to edit mustard greens’ DNA, removing a gene that gives them their pungent flavor.

The greens are first being rolled out in restaurants and other locations in St. Louis, Springfield, Massachusetts and the Minneapolis-St. Paul area, before heading to U.S. grocery stores — beginning ...

FrankenMeats are here: Soybeans are being genetically engineered to grow pig protein

Soybeans and other common crops to be replaced with genetically engineered meat substitute crops

Moolec is poised to profit from the latest CRISPR-Cas gene-editing experiment that effectively splices conventional soya to create a soybean with 26.6 percent animal protein. Due to the gene edits, the interior portion of this new soybean hybrid presents a rosy flesh color. The company claims that these new hybrids will provide similar taste, texture, and nutritional value ...

Unlabeled GMO salad greens coming to a grocery store near you

June 12, 2023 -

CRISPR, which stands for clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat, was used to edit the DNA of mustard greens, removing a key gene that gives them their pungent flavor.

Set to first be rolled out at restaurants in the St. Louis and Springfield areas of Missouri, as well as in Massachusetts and the Minneapolis – St. Paul area, Conscious Greens Purple Power Baby Greens Blend will eventually be sold at grocery stores all across the United States, starting ...

FRANKENFOOD ALERT: Piggy Sooy GMO soybean contains 26.6% animal protein

July 20, 2023 - CRISPR/Cas gene editing causes significant changes in the plant genome.

Researchers observed "chromothripsis-like" effects after the application of CRISPR/Cas gene editing in the genome of tomatoes.

Chromothripsis is a phenomenon wherein several hundred genetic changes may occur simultaneously in a catastrophic event. The phenomenon can result in many sections of the genetic material getting swapped, recombined or lost.

The researchers also warned ...

Dangerous gene-edited pigs now authorized by Biden’s Food and Drug Administration

May 08, 2023 -

Gene editing involves making changes in an organism's DNA that would typically occur in nature or through selective breeding but would take longer without a tool like CRISPR.

While the FDA's authorization is limited to these specific pigs, it demonstrates that gene-editing livestock to quickly produce desirable traits for improved food production is a viable strategy for helping feed the planet's growing population, but of course, it will be with altered food that ...

BIO-RACE WARS: Defense report warns that future plagues will target specific genomes and races

January 19, 2024 - CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats) gene sequences as a genetic engineering tool, and advances in BCI (brain-computer interfaces), may shift strategic calculations,” it states.

In the past, biological weapons were not taken very seriously because there was such a big risk of the forces that deploy them sustaining collateral damage. Because pathogens move around so easily, the chances of them affecting those who release them were long ...

Defense report reveals future warfare may involve man-made pathogens and AI

a month ago -

The advancement of biotechnology, which in the past was often only observed in science fiction, is now a reality. Analysts and experts are now considering the use of dangerous technologies in strategic military planning.

The report detailed several technological improvements, such as brain-computer interfaces, CRISPR gene editing and mRNA vaccines, potentially changing the strategic landscape. The report also suggested that the steadily increasing number of countries ...

RFK Jr. confirms that the U.S. is developing BIOWEAPONS in Ukraine labs

August 23, 2023 -

"We have biolabs in Ukraine because we're developing bioweapons," RFK Jr. told Carlson. "Those bioweapons are using all kinds of new synthetic biology, CRISPR technology and genetic engineering techniques that were not available to the previous generation. They can make frightening, frightening stuff."

He also said that the Department of Defense (DoD) "began putting a lot of money into bioweapons" when the biological weapons armories were reopened in 2001 under ...
