Epigenetic Editing with CRISPR Might Be Easier Than We Thought

XTalks

The tool could also prove to be safer than conventional CRISPR-based gene therapies as it does not involve DNA editing, and thus would not cause potentially harmful off-target genomic changes. Genes can be switched on with a complementary tool called CRISPRon that has also been described in the paper. . pyogenes dCas9.
