## [CUT&Tag: An Alternative to Chromatin Immunoprecipitation](https://blog.abclonal.com/blog/cuttag-an-alternative-to-chip)
- [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share)
The arguably most fun thing about science is when your supervisor tells you to just do Experiment X to test hypothesis, but then they kind of forget to tell you how complicated the techniques are to perform that experiment, not to mention all the optimization you would need to do. I personally have never done a chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP), and since I wasn’t in genomics, the most sequencing I ever did was setting up quick reactions for the core facility to tell me that my gene constructs were correctly built. ChIP does sound rather simple when explained in class, but when you read up on the protocols,1 there are some limitations to what ChIP can do, especially given the large amount of starting material you need for the typical experiment. Luckily, in recent years, scientists have started to use an alternative technique called Cleavage Under Targets and Tagmentation, or CUT&Tag, which ABclonal is pleased to support through our antibody reagents.

## [Designer Genes: What's Next For CRISPR?](https://blog.abclonal.com/blog/designer-genes-whats-next-for-crispr)
- [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share)
Towards the end of my doctoral research, I first heard the rumblings of an acronym termed “CRISPR” that was starting to gather momentum. By the time I earned my doctorate, the applications that were discussed in both theory and in practice accelerated to the point that, while I didn’t fully understand the mechanism of the factors involved, I was certain that the discovery and re-engineering of this prokaryotic phenomenon would eventually be recognized with a Nobel Prize. Less than a decade after their first publications on the topic, 1, 2 Emmanuelle Charpentier and Jennifer Doudna were awarded the [Nobel Prize in Chemistry](https://www.nobelprize.org/prizes/chemistry/2020/press-release/) “for the development of a method for genome editing,” which sounds a lot less important than it actually is!
