Genome editing is an exciting but still nascent field, and companies in the area face as many obstacles as they do opportunities. ZFPs can be engineered to make zinc finger nucleases, or ZFNs, which are proteins that can be used to edit genomes by knocking select genes in or out to specifically modify DNA sequences.
