About Caribou’s Novel Next-Generation CRISPR
PlatformCRISPR genome editing uses easily designed,
modular biological tools to make DNA changes in living cells. There
are two basic components of Type II CRISPR systems: the nuclease
protein that cuts DNA and the RNA molecule(s) that guide the
nuclease to generate a site-specific, double-stranded break,
leading to an edit at the targeted genomic site. CRISPR systems
occasionally edit unintended genomic sites, known as off-target
editing, which may lead to harmful effects on cellular function and
phenotype. In response to this challenge, Caribou has developed
chRDNAs (pronounced “chardonnays”), RNA-DNA hybrid guides that
direct substantially more precise genome editing compared to
all-RNA guides. Caribou is deploying the power of the chRDNA
technology to carry out high efficiency multiple edits, including
multiplex gene insertions, to develop CRISPR-edited therapies.
About Caribou Biosciences, Inc.Caribou is a
clinical-stage CRISPR genome-editing biopharmaceutical company
dedicated to transforming the lives of patients with devastating
diseases by applying the company’s proprietary chRDNA technology
toward the development of next-generation, genome-edited cell
therapies. The company is developing a pipeline of genome-edited,
off-the-shelf CAR-T and CAR-NK cell therapies for the treatment of
both hematologic malignancies and solid tumors against cell surface
targets for which autologous CAR-T cell therapeutics have
previously demonstrated clinical proof of concept, as well as
additional emerging targets.
