What an amazing tool!
Now, non-coding RNA can be programmed to target specific DNA to promote insertion, inversion and excision. WOW! Congratulations to @pdhsu and his team on such a wonderful achievement! :o)

Two papers in @Nature present a new genome editing technique that enables the insertion, inversion and deletion of long DNA sequences at user-specified genome positions. The approach may provide an easier method of genome editing.

ALT This is figure 1 from the paper from Patrick Hsu and colleagues, which shows that IS110 mobile genetic elements express a ncRNA that is bound by its encoded recombinase.
