Researchers report engineering a compact CRISPR enzyme with a 60-fold increase in gene-editing power. The mini enzyme, if validated, could make gene therapies more efficient with smaller delivery vehicles, a key limitation in current CRISPR treatments. Coverage in the biology community highlights the size-and-strength tradeoff as a notable advance for therapeutic and research applications.
