HIV-1 and HTLV-1 Transmission Modes: Mechanisms and Importance for Virus Spread
So far, only two retroviruses, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) (type 1 and 2) and human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1), have been recognized as pathogenic for humans. Both viruses mainly infect CD4+ T lymphocytes.

“Usage a CRISPR/Cas9-based for obtaining knockouts of economically significant cattle genes” [PDF]
An experimental work dealing with the gene modification using the Cas9 RNA-based editing system was performed. Point site-specific breakpoints in gDNA were introduced at the zygote stage by microinjection of spCas9 mRNA protein and guide RNAs into the ...

The gene-editing of super-ego [PDF]
New emerging biotechnologies, such as gene editing, vastly extend our ability to alter the human being. This comes together with strong aspirations to improve humans not only physically, but also mentally, morally, and socially. These conjoined ambitions aggregate to what can be labelled "the gene editing of super-ego." This article investigates a ...
