Salk Institute scientists have used new technique to cure rats’ blindness. It is the first time anyone has edited DNA in eyes, heart, brain or liver.

5 And [a]they were not given authority to kill them, but to torment them for five months. Their torment was like the torment of a scorpion when it strikes a man. 6 In those days men will seek death and will not find it; they will desire to die, and death will flee from them.

* New technique makes it cheaper and faster to synthesise bits of DNA
* It is more accurate than today’s methods and allows for larger synthetic genes
* The technique could help scientists working to reverse the ageing process

A revolutionary new DNA tool could help take humanity a step closer to eternal life. The device pioneers a new technique that makes it cheaper and easier to synthesise genes ‘overnight’ – a process that typically takes several days.
–
Scientists say the new system is also far more accurate than existing methods, allowing researchers to build DNA strands up to 10 times longer than current technology. The technique could help scientists working to reverse the ageing process by manipulating a key molecule called telomerase – thought to repair our DNA.

Scientists at the University of California at Berkeley said it could lead to ‘DNA printers’ in research labs that work like the 3D printers in many modern workshops. ‘If you’re a mechanical engineer, it’s really nice to have a 3D printer in your shop that can print out a part overnight so you can test it the next morning,’ said UC Berkeley graduate student Dan Arlow.

‘If you’re a researcher or bioengineer and you have an instrument that streamlines DNA synthesis, a ‘DNA printer’, you can test your ideas faster and try out more new ideas. I think it will lead to a lot of innovation.’
