A new study published in the Metabolic Engineering Journal describes a method based on CRISPR/Cas9, which enables flexible engineering of essential and nonessential enzymes without additional engineering. This has multiple applications, including the development of bio-based production of pharmaceuticals, food additives, fuels and cosmetics.
