Gene Switch: A Novel Platform for Switching Genes On and Off

Roots Analysis

Gene switches can be regulatory proteins or specific DNA sequences that act to either switch on or off the expression of a gene. Basic Components of Gene Switch Gene switches are composed of noncoding DNA sequences and transcription factors. These genetic switches assist transcription factors in binding to the promoter region.

Spotlighting Lupus Awareness Month: CAR-T Technology Creates New Avenues for Treatment of a Devastating Disease

WCG Clinical

CAR-T Cells Target Harmful B Cells in Lupus CAR-T cell technology, which uses genetic engineering to direct white blood cells to attack specific molecular targets, was originally proposed for treatment of HIV infection and hematological malignancies. In these cases B cell depletion is a feature, not a bug.
