Researchers demonstrate how CRISPR/Cas9 technology can be used to target and suppress replication of herpesviruses in human cells.
PLOS Pathogens researchers used CRISPR/Cas9 technology to suppress and in some cases eliminate viral replication of herpesviruses, some of the most persistent and most common viruses.
