Indian scientists have created a new GE technology using TnpB proteins, which can edit plant genes like “molecular scissors”. This offers an alternative to CRISPR-Cas proteins controlled by global companies. TnpB proteins are compact and easily delivered into cells without tissue culture. However, IP rights are a major obstacle, despite already being used to develop […]
