NASA/JPL-Caltech Rapid advances in commercial space, artificial intelligence, and edge computing are transforming what is possible for Earth observation. By pushing more intelligence onboard, missions can move from passively collecting data to actively interpreting and responding to changing surface conditions in near-real time, enabling more targeted observations and dramatically improvingContinue Reading

Reprogramming CRISPR–Cas enzymes for customized genome editing

Research Briefing Published: 02 February 2026 Nature Biotechnology (2026)Cite this article Subjects We developed Protein2PAM, an evolution-informed protein language model that predicts protospacer-adjacent motif (PAM) specificity of CRISPR–Cas enzymes. Using in silico mutagenesis and model-guided evolution, we generated Cas9 variants with broadened PAM compatibility and higher activity, enabling editing of genomic sites that were previouslyContinue Reading
