But hey, by the same approach, you could make Mahatma Gandhi in to Zombie too!..may be enslave the whole human race !!!!

The gene-tech of GATTACA pales in comparison to reality. ..but now imagine that the main protagonist could get a gene therapy when he was already fully grown up and not only when he had been still a fertilized embryo.

On perusing the lab site, it would appear that site directed mutagenensis of the effector is required for binding of the targeting RNA. Still easier than before, but not as easy as I'm sure people were thinking. On reading the article here, it was made to seem that one could simply sub in bound RNA and get to cutting.

They both use the cas9 enzyme to cut the DNA, and the both use RNA sequences to locate the deletion and insertion point. Exciting work though. Who needs nanobotic genomic therapies when you can have such elegant modalities as this. Perfect regulation of health is just around the corner! This appears to be redundant to the article above it.
