Abstract

Moderna, known for its messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccines for COVID-19, is branching out into gene editing. Moderna has struck a research collaboration with Metagenomi, a start-up focused on discovering new enzymes for CRISPR gene editing and other gene-editing systems.

Metagenomi will get an undisclosed payment and investment from Moderna.
