Researchers have used cryo-electron microscopy to reveal the molecular mechanism by which a retrotransposon works together with CRISPR-Cas9 to insert genes into DNA. The findings offer structural insight into gene-insertion processes, potentially informing the development of more precise gene-editing and gene-therapy tools.
