Implications of the EFSA Scientific Opinion on Site Directed Nucleases 1 and 2 for Risk Assessment of Genome-Edited Plants in the EU
Genome editing is a set of techniques for introducing targeted changes in genomes.It may be achieved by enzymes collectively called site-directed nucleases (SDN).Site-specificity of SDNs is provided either by the DNA binding domain of the protein molecule itself or by RNA molecule(s) that direct SDN to a specific site in the genome.In contrast to t
