So excited to share our new paper out today in
@nature.com
. We repurposed R2 retrotransposons to create STITCHR, a tool that can make virtually any kind of edit in mammalian genomes including the scarless multi-kilobase scale insertions ๐งต

If you like transposons... If you you love genome editing... Or if you just like random bird animations, we have the paper for you! We (
@kedmonds.bsky.social
et al) are happy to share our work turning a songbird retrotransposon into a genome editing tool. ๐ฃ (1/n)
