Researchers at the University of California San Francisco (UCSF) and the Whitehead Institute have developed a novel CRISPR-based tool called “CRISPRoff” that can switch off genes in human cells without editing the genetic sequence itself. These modifications regulate gene expression without altering the sequence or structure of DNA.

Over 26 weeks of Sunlenca combined with other antiretroviral drugs, 81 percent of participants achieved HIV RNA suppression, reaching levels low enough to be considered undetectable. In 2021, the FDA granted approval to San Francisco-based Excision BioTherapeutics to start trials assessing CRISPR gene editing as a potential treatment for HIV.

The new technique controls gene activity without altering the DNA sequence of the genome by targeting chemical modifications that help package genes in our chromosomes and regulate their activity. Cas9 is the protein used in the gene editing process called CRISPR. Cas9 binds and uses RNA as an address-tag.
