CRISPR pioneer and STS alumnus on the "joy of doing science" – Science News for Students

The Regeneron Science Talent Search (STS) alumni community is an illustrious group who hold many honors. This years finalists had the opportunity to hear from one of the many accomplished Society alumni, Feng Zhang (ISEF 1998-1999, STS 2000), at a virtual version of an annual STS traditionthe Alumni Dinner. Each year a distinguished alumnus is invited to speak to the current class. Feng was in the same position as the students when he competed and heard from STS alumni who came before him. Returning to pay it forward and inspire this cohort with his insights as a successful molecular biologist focused on developing tools to improve human health, Feng spoke to the Regeneron STS 2020 finalists about his work with CRISPR-Cas9 systems and some of its applications.

Since competing in 2000, Feng has helped develop bacterial tools for gene editing and diagnostics. One of the really exciting advances over the past decade-plus has been the completion of the human genome, he said. By using genomics, scientists are now rapidly learning about what causes health problems and what can potentially be used as a way to treat illnesses.

Out of its many uses, CRISPRs potential as a therapeutic is most tantalizing to researchers and the public, but Feng cautioned against hasty adoption. One of the ongoing challenges, especially surrounding the development of gene editing and more broadly, biotechnology, is to also think about bioethics. STS finalist, Amogh Bhatnagar asked Feng if there should be any governmental regulations for the use of CRISPR. Another finalist, Jake Yasonik, wanted to know if gene-edited babies would become the norm in the future. In acknowledging the complex nature of these questions, Feng stressed the importance of involving the entire scientific community for input. Different groups have different opinions and its really important to have discussions and have all these different groups come up with a consensus for how to go about using the technology.

Ultimately, it will be up to the finalists to have these important conversations. As you go through college and training, you will become leaders in scientific, political, ethical or medical professions. Really think about these issues, Feng encouraged. These are the things that will impact humanity in a very irreversible way going forward.

Based on Fengs conversation with the finalists, it is clear more scientific innovation is possible. Theres so much out there to explore. Its very exciting, he expressed. Were really in a golden age where theres so much data and computational resources. We are beginning to learn so much more about the natural world and we can also try to make something useful out of it. When STS finalist, Alina Pollner, asked about his research experience, Feng had these words of wisdom to share: In science, you will have many eureka moments. Once you have one, you will yearn for another, its almost like getting addicted. Thats really the joy of doing science.

How gene editing a person’s brain cells could be used to curb the opioid epidemic – Thehour.com

(The Conversation is an independent and nonprofit source of news, analysis and commentary from academic experts.)

Craig W. Stevens, Oklahoma State University

(THE CONVERSATION) Even as the COVID-19 pandemic cripples the economy and kills hundreds of people each day, there is another epidemic that continues to kill tens of thousands of people each year through opioid drug overdose.

Opioid analgesic drugs, like morphine and oxycodone, are the classic double-edged swords. They are the very best drugs to stop severe pain but also the class of drugs most likely to kill the person taking them. In a recent journal article, I outlined how a combination of state-of-the-art molecular techniques, such as CRISPR gene editing and brain microinjection methods, could be used to blunt one edge of the sword and make opioid drugs safer.

I am a pharmacologist interested in the way opioid drugs such as morphine and fentanyl can blunt pain. I became fascinated in biology at the time when endorphins natural opioids made by our bodies were discovered. I have been intrigued by the way opioid drugs work and their targets in the brain, the opioid receptors, for the last 30 years. In my paper, I propose a way to prevent opioid overdoses by modifying an opioid users brain cells using advanced technology.

Opioid receptors stop breathing

Opioids kill by stopping a person from breathing (respiratory depression). They do so by acting on a specific set of respiratory nerves, or neurons, found in the lower part of the brain that contain opioid receptors. Opioid receptors are proteins that bind morphine, heroin and other opioid drugs. The binding of an opioid to its receptor triggers a reaction in neurons that reduces their activity. Opioid receptors on pain neurons mediate the pain-killing, or analgesic, effects of opioids. When opioids bind to opioid receptors on respiratory neurons, they slow breathing or, in the case of an opioid overdose, stop it entirely.

Respiratory neurons are located in the brainstem, the tail-end part of the brain that continues into the spine as the spinal cord. Animal studies show that opioid receptors on respiratory neurons are responsible for opioid-induced respiratory depression the cause of opioid overdose. Genetically altered mice born without opioid receptors do not die from large doses of morphine unlike mice with these receptors present.

Unlike laboratory mice, humans cannot be altered when embryos to remove all opioid receptors from the brain and elsewhere. Nor would it be a good idea. Humans need opioid receptors to serve as the targets for our natural opioid substances, the endorphins, which are released into the brain during times of high stress and pain.

Also, a total opioid receptor knockout in humans would leave that person unresponsive to the beneficial pain-killing effects of opioids. In my journal article, I argue that what is needed is a selective receptor removal of the opioid receptors on respiratory neurons. Having reviewed the available technology, I believe this can be done by combining CRISPR gene editing and a new neurosurgical microinjection technique.

CRISPR to the rescue: Destroying opioid receptors

CRISPR, which is an acronym for clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats, is a gene editing method that was discovered in the genome of bacteria. Bacteria get infected by viruses too and CRISPR is a strategy that bacteria evolved to cut-up the viral genes and kill invading pathogens.

The CRISPR method allows researchers to target specific genes expressed in cell lines, tissues, or whole organisms, to be cut-up and removed knocked out or otherwise altered. There is a commercially available CRISPR kit which knocks out human opioid receptors produced in cells that are grown in cell cultures in the lab. While this CRISPR kit is formulated for in vitro use, similar conditional opioid receptor knock-out techniques have been demonstrated in live mice.

To knockout opioid receptors in human respiratory neurons, a sterile solution containing CRISPR gene-editing molecules would be prepared in the laboratory. Besides the gene-editing components, the solution contains chemical reagents that allow the gene-editing machinery to enter the respiratory neurons and make their way into the nucleus and into the neurons genome.

How does one get the CRISPR opioid receptor knockout solution into a persons respiratory neurons?

Enter the intracranial microinjection instrument (IMI) developed by Miles Cunningham and his colleagues at Harvard. The IMI allows for computer-controlled delivery of small volumes of solution at specific places in the brain by using an extremely thin tube about twice the diameter of a human hair that can enter the brain at the base of the skull and thread through brain tissue without damage.

The computer can direct the robotic placement of the tube as it is fed images of the brain taken before the procedure using MRI. But even better, the IMI also has a recording wire embedded in the tube that allows measurement of neuronal activity to identify the right group of nerve cells.

Because the brain itself feels no pain, the procedure could be done in a conscious patient using only local anesthetics to numb the skin. Respiratory neurons drive the breathing muscles by firing action potentials which are measured by the recording wire in the tube. When the activity of the respiratory neurons matches the breathing movements by the patients, the proper location of the tube is confirmed and the CRISPR solution injected.

The call for drastic action

Opioid receptors on neurons in the brain have a half-life of about 45 minutes. Over a period of several hours, the opioid receptors on respiratory neurons would degrade and the CRISPR gene-editing machinery embedded in the genome would prevent new opioid receptors from appearing. If this works, the patient would be protected from opioid overdose within 24 hours. Because the respiratory neurons do not replenish, the CRISPR opioid receptor knockout should last for life.

With no opioid receptors on respiratory neurons, the opioid user cannot die from opioid overdose. After proper backing from National Institute on Drug Abuse and leading research and health care institutions, I believe CRISPR treatment could enter clinical trials in between five to 10 years. The total cost of opioid-involved overdose deaths is about US$430 billion per year. CRISPR treatment of only 10% of high-risk opioid users in one year would save thousands of lives and $43 billion.

[Deep knowledge, daily. Sign up for The Conversations newsletter.]

Intracranial microinjection of CRISPR solutions might seem drastic. But drastic actions that are needed to save human lives from opioid overdoses. A large segment of the opioid overdose victims are chronic pain patients. It may be possible that chronic pain patients in a terminal phase of their lives and in hospice care would volunteer in phase I clinical trials for the CRISPR opioid receptor knockout treatment I propose here.

Making the opioid user impervious to death by opioids is a permanent solution to a horrendous problem that has resisted efforts by prevention, treatment and pharmacological means. Steady and well-funded work to prove the CRISPR method, first with preclinical animal models then in clinical trials, is a moonshot for the present generation of biomedical scientists.

Explained: The new and quicker Covid-19 tests approved under the US RADx scheme – The Indian Express

Written by Abhishek De, Edited by Explained Desk | New Delhi | Updated: August 5, 2020 9:45:10 am Covid-19 testing types, process: A member of the Brooklyn Hospital Center COVID-19 testing team calls in the next patient in line in the Brooklyn borough of New York (AP)

With experts predicting the demand for Covid-19 tests in the US to be millions more per day above current levels in the coming weeks, the government has awarded contracts worth $248.7 million to seven biomedical firms to produce next-generation tests under its Rapid Acceleration of Diagnostics (RADx) initiative.

The aim behind the initiative is to significantly increase the number, type and availability of tests by millions per week by fall. According to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the seven firms have already received Emergency Use Authorisation from the US Food and Drug Authority (FDA) after they were found successful in the first phase of trials.

While one test uses the gene-editing technique called CRISPR to spot SARS-CoV-2, another uses a technique for scanning the genetic code to see if someone has contracted the virus. Another uses saliva samples rather than time-consuming swab tests while a fourth uses a hand-held device that produces results within 30 minutes.

The development comes even as the US reported the biggest number of new cases of any month in July since the pandemic began, with more than 1.9 million new cases, according to data from Johns Hopkins University.

The NIH launched the RADx programme on April 29 days after receiving an emergency appropriation of $1.5 billion from Congress to support innovative technologies to make millions of rapid Covid-19 tests. The seven firms were chosen from over 650 applicants and 31 projects.

While the US has conducted more Covid-19 tests than any other country, more than 60 million, there have been reports that Americans still continue to wait in queues to get tested and results get delayed by weeks. The RADx initiative will help develop new tests that will allow students, teachers and other workers to get tested frequently, allowing the safe re-opening of educational institutions and bringing back normal economic activity. The initiative is aiming at approximately 6 million daily tests in the United States by December.

Mesa Biotech: The company has developed a test that employs a hand-held RT-PCR device and a compact, single-use cartridge that detects viral RNA at the point of care. Named Accula SARS-CoV-2 test, one can see the results from the removable cartridge in 30 minutes.

Quidel: This is also a point-of-care test and has been identified for use in nursing homes or pharmacies. Named Quidel Sofia SARS Antigen FIA test, a lateral flow immunoassay, it uses analysers equipped with advanced fluorescence detection with an ultraviolet LED energy source. The analysers give results within 15 minutes.

Talis Biomedical: Capable of returning a result under 30 minutes, the Talis One Covid-19 test uses a multiplexed cartridge to detect SARS-CoV-2 through isothermal amplification of viral RNA and an optical detection system.

Ginkgo Bioworks: The Boston-based firm uses next-generation sequencing technologies to process tens of thousands of individual tests at once and will provide end-to-end sample collection and report results within 24-48 hours. The company is expected scale up to 50,000 tests per day in September and 100,000 per day by the end of the year.

Helix OpCo: The Covid-19 test by Helix uses nasal swabs to collect samples that can be processed in very volumes at once and can give results within 24-48 hours using a combination of sophisticated automation processes.

Fluidigm: The California-based firm has developed a diagnostic molecular test integrated with fluidic chips that detects SARS-CoV-2 from saliva specimens. The high-throughput test, named Advanta Dx SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR Assay, does not need a viral RNA extraction kit.

Mammoth Biosciences Inc: The Covid-19 test, named SARS-CoV-2 DETECTR assay, uses gene-editing CRISPR technology, which provides a simpler workflow and faster turnaround time compared to conventional PCR tests.

The CRISPR technology can detect even a small extract of SARS-CoV-2 genetic material in a nose, mouth or throat swab, or in fluid from the lungs. If the viruss genetic material is detected, the CRISPR enzyme generates a fluorescent glow.

Scientists have mapped and analyzed the atomic structure of CRISPR-Cas – FREE NEWS

Researchers at the University of Copenhagen in a new study presented the largest and most complex CRISPR system. Scientists believe that this system can find applications in biomedicine and biotechnology. Their work is featured in the scientific journal Molecular Cell.

CRISPR technology can be used to edit genes and revolutionized the scientific world when it was first introduced. CRISPR-Cas9 is probably the best-known CRISPR system and is widely known as gene scissors.

This is just one of many CRISPR systems in existence.

Now researchers at the University of Copenhagen (UCPH) have mapped and analyzed the atomic structure of one of the most complex CRISPR systems identified to date.

Scientists have disassembled the largest and most complex CRISPR-Cas complex seen so far. They now understand how this system works at the molecular level, said co-author Guillermo Montoya, professor at the Novo Nordisk Foundations Center for Protein Research at the University of Copenhagen (NNF CPR). Scientists have studied a complex called Cmr-, which belongs to a subgroup of so-called type III-B CRISPR-Cas complexes. The new results have already been presented to the public.

In the new study, the researchers examined the role of Cmr in the immune system and the mechanisms underlying its immune response against various bacteriophages, as well as how it is regulated.

The Cmr system, mapped by scientists in the new study, may, among other things, remove single-stranded RNA and DNA, although this will be quite difficult. But in the future, the Cmr system may still be the key to understanding the immune response of bacteria, and it may find applications in the fight against antibiotic resistance.

First Gene Knockout in a Cephalopod is Achieved at Marine Biological Laboratory by Professor Karen Crawford and Team | Southern Maryland News Net -…

The team at MBL, led by MBL Senior Scientist Joshua Rosenthal and Crawford, has achieved the first gene knockout in a cephalopod using the squid Doryteuthis pealeii, an exceptionally important research organism in biology for nearly a century.

The team used CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing to knock out a pigmentation gene in squid embryos, which eliminated pigmentation in the eye and in skin cells (chromatophores) with high efficiency.

This is a critical first step toward the ability to knock out and knock in genes in cephalopods to address a host of biological questions, Rosenthal says.

Cephalopods (squid, octopus and cuttlefish) have the largest brain of all invertebrates, a distributed nervous system capable of instantaneous camouflage and sophisticated behaviors, a unique body plan, and the ability to extensively recode their own genetic information within messenger RNA, along with other distinctive features. These open many avenues for study and have applications in a wide range of fields, from evolution and development, to medicine, robotics, materials science, and artificial intelligence.

The ability to knock out a gene to test its function is an important step in developing cephalopods as genetically tractable organisms for biological research, augmenting the handful of species that currently dominate genetic studies, such as fruit flies, zebrafish, and mice.

CRISPR-Cas9 worked really well in Doryteuthis; it was surprisingly efficient, Rosenthal says. Much more challenging was delivering the CRISPR-Cas system into the one-celled squid embryo, which is surrounded by an exceedingly tough outer layer, and then raising the embryo through hatching. The team developed micro-scissors to clip the eggs surface and a beveled quartz needle to deliver the CRISPR-Cas9 reagents through the clip.

Studies with Doryteuthis pealeii have led to foundational advances in neurobiology, beginning with description of the action potential (nerve impulse) in the 1950s, a discovery for which Alan Hodgkin and Andrew Huxley became Nobel Prize laureates in 1963. For decades D. pealeii has drawn neurobiologists from all over the world to the MBL, which collects the squid from local waters.

Recently, Rosenthal and colleagues discovered extensive recoding of mRNA in the nervous system of Doryteuthis and other cephalopods. This research is under development for potential biomedical applications, such as pain management therapy.

For these reasons, the MBL Cephalopod Programs next goal is to transfer the new knockout technology to a smaller cephalopod species, Euprymna berryi (the hummingbird bobtail squid), which is relatively easy to culture to make genetic strains.

The MBL Cephalopod Program is part of the MBLs New Research Organisms Initiative, which is widening the palette of genetically tractable organisms available for research and thus expanding the universe of biological questions that can be asked.

Silencing the SARS-CoV-2 Receptor With CRISPR and Epigenetic Modifications – Technology Networks

The Hackett Group at EMBL Rome explores epigenetics, genome regulation and cell identity. Recently, the scientists developed a novel CRISPR molecular tool for editing the epigenome, enabling transient modifications that can switch certain genes "on" and "off" temporarily.The SARS-CoV-2 virus that has caused the COVID-19 global pandemic makes its way into a host cell via a protein known as ACE2, which is involved in a range of physiological functions in the body.

What happens when you transiently turn "off" the gene that encodes this protein? Can SARS-Cov-2 still enter the cell and cause infection? This is what Hackett and colleagues are currently exploring in animal models, to determine whether epigenetic silencing could be a treatment approach for COVID-19 in humans.Technology Networks spoke with Dr James (Jamie) Hackett, group leader at EMBL, to learn more about the CRISPR tool, how it can be used to silence ACE2 in the context of SARS-CoV-2 infection and whether there could be any adverse implications from doing so.Molly Campbell (MC): For our readers that may be unfamiliar, can you please describe what epigenetic modifications are?Jamie Hackett (JH): Epigenetic modifications are small chemical tags that are physically grafted onto DNA (or the histones that DNA wraps around) to help control how and when the DNA is used. These epigenetic modifications act as signposts that encourage a specific part of DNA, such as a gene, to be switched on or off. In other words, they help control which genes are "expressed", and which are ignored in each cell. This is important to ensure that genes that are required specifically in liver, for example, are only switched on in the liver, and not say, in the brain.MC: You are developing a CRISPR-based molecular tool to conduct epigenetic editing. Can you please tell us about this approach? How have you developed the tool and how does it work?JH: CRISPR systems normally locate a specific section of DNA in the genome and alter its genetic sequence, known as genetic "editing". Epigenetic editing uses the same principle but instead alters the epigenetic modifications at a specific region rather than the genetic sequence. This turns genes on or off in a "programmable" manner. Importantly, unlike genetic editing, epigenetic editing is largely reversible, enabling transient changes in how genes operate without changing the DNA sequence itself.MC: You plan to test the tool in mice to target airway cells that express the ACE2 protein. Can you talk to us about the rationale behind this?JH: ACE2 is a protein that sits on the outside of many cells and is normally involved in controlling blood pressure. However, the COVID-19 virus hijacks ACE2 by using it as a docking site that enables entry of the virus into a cell. If the gene ACE2 is switched OFF, this should remove the access point for COVID-19 and restrict infection. To test this possibility, we will use mouse models where we attempt to epigenetically switch off ACE2, which will help inform us whether this could be a viable strategy in humans in the future.

MC: Could there be adverse effects from targeting the ACE2 protein, as it is involved in several physiological processes in humans, for example? How will you explore and monitor this?JH: Impaired levels of ACE2 over long periods are linked with elevated blood pressure. However, over short-term periods loss of ACE2 appears to be relatively tolerable. This is one reason why a reversible "epigenetic" approach could be appealing since it would only temporality deplete ACE2 from cells, potentially to provide protection during high risk periods, before allowing it to return to its original status at the appropriate time.MC: What broader applications might this tool have, beyond SARS-CoV-2?JH: The same technology can, in principle, be applied to change the expression of genes other than ACE2, that are linked with disease. We are at the very beginning of exploring the potential of this, so it is not clear what realistic expectations are, but there is nonetheless great excitement about such precision strategies. For example, diseases where one of the two gene copies is a "mutant", such as Huntingtons disease, could be targets. Here it is hoped to be possible to epigenetically switch off only the mutant version of the gene, leaving the normal copy on. This scenario is predicted to help mitigate symptoms in a very precise and specific way. Conversely, in the neurological disorder Fragile X syndrome, the FMR1 gene has become inappropriately silenced (switched off). Epigenetic editing can be applied to selectively reactivate this gene to switch it on, with initial indications being that this helps restore neuronal functions. Jamie Hackett was speaking to Molly Campbell, Science Writer for Technology Networks.

If You Invested $100 in CRISPR Therapeutics’ IPO, This Is How Much Money You’d Have Now – The Motley Fool

There are good investments and there are great investments. CRISPR Therapeutics (NASDAQ:CRSP) stock certainly qualifies as the latter.

This is a company that, four years after it went public, has only been profitable for one year, yet its future is so promising that its stock is trading for 540% more than it did in 2016.

What's the big deal about CRISPR Therapeutics? The biopharmaceutical company says it is using breakthrough gene-altering therapies to treat diseases such as sickle cell disease (SCD) and beta-thalassemia, both of which are inherited blood disorders that don't have a cure and require frequent blood transfusions. The company is also working on gene therapies to treat type 1 diabetes, muscular dystrophy, cystic fibrosis, multiple myeloma, and solid tumors in pancreatic cancer and lung cancer.

Image source: Getty Images.

CRISPR Therapeutics is actually named for the technology it uses: CRISPR stands for "clusters of regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats." The gene-editing technology uses Cas9 proteins to locate a sequenceof DNA within a cell and alter it.

Though CRISPR Therapeutics has yet to bring a product to market, some of its clinical trials have had amazing results. In June, the Swiss company announced that in a joint trial with Vertex Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ:VRTX), five patients with beta-thalassemia and two patients with sickle cell disease were treated with gene therapy CTX001.

Two of the early beta-thalassemia patients are now transfusion independent 15 months afterward. The first SCD patient in the trial is transfusion independent and free of vaso-occlusive crises (VOCs), a painful condition when blood vessels are blocked by sickled red blood cells, seven months after his dose of CTX001.

Beta-thalassemia, which reduces the body's production of hemoglobin, is extremely rare. Sickle cell anemia is common among African Americans but also can affect Latinos and people of Indian, Asian, Mediterranean backgrounds. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services says 300,000 babies worldwide are born every year with the disease and 100,000 people in the United States are currently living with the disease.

While the results are quite promising, the study is still in its infancy. .

If you had invested $100 in CRISPR Therapeutics stock when it went public in 2016, how much would that be worth today?

By the end of the day on Oct. 19, 2016, the day CRISPR Therapeutics went public, the stock was trading at $14.09, you would have bought seven shares. Assuming you bought at that price, your original $98.63 investment would be worth $632.45 as of the close of trading Friday when the stock went for $90.35 per share. That's a gain of 541%.

CRISPR Therapeutics isn't the only biotech to use CRISPR-Cas9 technology. Others include Editas Medicine (NASDAQ:EDIT) and Intellia Therapeutics (NASDAQ:NTLA), both of which went public in 2016. Neither of those has done quite as well as CRISPR Therapeutics since its IPO.

Compared to a biotech ETF such as the iShares NASDAQ Biotechnology ETF (NASDAQ:IBB), CRISPR has shined. The ETF closed at $89.16 on the day of CRISPR's IPO. As of Friday's close, IBB was at $136.41. If you had invested $100 on Oct. 19, 2016, you would have a return of only 36%.

CRSP data by YCharts

Clinical-stage biotech stocks are inherently risky plays because there are so many hurdles these companies have to clear before they can make money. The therapies have to be approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and many therapies look promising only to fail in late-stage clinical trials.

CRISPR Therapeutics looks like a solid bet, though, both from a cash standpoint and in its strength of pipeline. The company has four candidates already in trials.It is already making money, though not a lot of it. Last year, CRISPR Therapeutics generated net income of $66.8 million, thanks to $289.5 million in collaboration revenue.

The other major question for clinical-stage biotechs is whether they have enough capital to pay for research and development until the therapies pay off. Last quarter, the company burned through $54 million in cash. However, CRISPR Therapeutics says it has more than $900 million left, so it can continue that burn rate for more than four years. The possibility that CRISPR Therapeutics' technology could actually cure diseases, not just treat them, easily makes this a risk worth taking.

Will CRISPR Therapeutics AG (CRSP) Report Negative Q2 Earnings? What You Should Know – Yahoo Finance

CRISPR Therapeutics AG (CRSP) is expected to deliver a year-over-year increase in earnings on higher revenues when it reports results for the quarter ended June 2020. This widely-known consensus outlook gives a good sense of the company's earnings picture, but how the actual results compare to these estimates is a powerful factor that could impact its near-term stock price.

The earnings report might help the stock move higher if these key numbers are better than expectations. On the other hand, if they miss, the stock may move lower.

While the sustainability of the immediate price change and future earnings expectations will mostly depend on management's discussion of business conditions on the earnings call, it's worth handicapping the probability of a positive EPS surprise.

Zacks Consensus Estimate

This company is expected to post quarterly loss of $0.92 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of +8.9%.

Revenues are expected to be $23.08 million, up 7112.5% from the year-ago quarter.

Estimate Revisions Trend

The consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has been revised 1.24% higher over the last 30 days to the current level. This is essentially a reflection of how the covering analysts have collectively reassessed their initial estimates over this period.

Investors should keep in mind that the direction of estimate revisions by each of the covering analysts may not always get reflected in the aggregate change.

Price, Consensus and EPS Surprise

Earnings Whisper

Estimate revisions ahead of a company's earnings release offer clues to the business conditions for the period whose results are coming out. Our proprietary surprise prediction model -- the Zacks Earnings ESP (Expected Surprise Prediction) -- has this insight at its core.

The Zacks Earnings ESP compares the Most Accurate Estimate to the Zacks Consensus Estimate for the quarter; the Most Accurate Estimate is a more recent version of the Zacks Consensus EPS estimate. The idea here is that analysts revising their estimates right before an earnings release have the latest information, which could potentially be more accurate than what they and others contributing to the consensus had predicted earlier.

Thus, a positive or negative Earnings ESP reading theoretically indicates the likely deviation of the actual earnings from the consensus estimate. However, the model's predictive power is significant for positive ESP readings only.

A positive Earnings ESP is a strong predictor of an earnings beat, particularly when combined with a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) or 3 (Hold). Our research shows that stocks with this combination produce a positive surprise nearly 70% of the time, and a solid Zacks Rank actually increases the predictive power of Earnings ESP.

Please note that a negative Earnings ESP reading is not indicative of an earnings miss. Our research shows that it is difficult to predict an earnings beat with any degree of confidence for stocks with negative Earnings ESP readings and/or Zacks Rank of 4 (Sell) or 5 (Strong Sell).

How Have the Numbers Shaped Up for CRISPR Therapeutics AG?

For CRISPR Therapeutics AG, the Most Accurate Estimate is higher than the Zacks Consensus Estimate, suggesting that analysts have recently become bullish on the company's earnings prospects. This has resulted in an Earnings ESP of +13.78%.

Story continues

On the other hand, the stock currently carries a Zacks Rank of #4.

So, this combination makes it difficult to conclusively predict that CRISPR Therapeutics AG will beat the consensus EPS estimate.

Does Earnings Surprise History Hold Any Clue?

Analysts often consider to what extent a company has been able to match consensus estimates in the past while calculating their estimates for its future earnings. So, it's worth taking a look at the surprise history for gauging its influence on the upcoming number.

For the last reported quarter, it was expected that CRISPR Therapeutics AG would post a loss of $1.09 per share when it actually produced a loss of $1.15, delivering a surprise of -5.50%.

Over the last four quarters, the company has beaten consensus EPS estimates two times.

Bottom Line

An earnings beat or miss may not be the sole basis for a stock moving higher or lower. Many stocks end up losing ground despite an earnings beat due to other factors that disappoint investors. Similarly, unforeseen catalysts help a number of stocks gain despite an earnings miss.

That said, betting on stocks that are expected to beat earnings expectations does increase the odds of success.

One year after forming a firm to acquire, develop and operate life sciences assets, Breakthrough Properties has signed a 263,500-square-foot lease agreement for its first ground-up development, The 105 in Bostons Seaport District. Located at 105 W. First St., the building will be fully leased by gene editing company CRISPR Therapeutics once it is completed in 2022.

Breakthrough Properties was launched in 2019 by real estate development firm Tishman Speyer and Bellco Capital, a biotech investment company. The firm is targeting life science developments in leading tech markets around the globe for companies involved in the biotech, agriculture and nutrition sectors. Breakthrough acquired the Seaport property in July 2019 and broke ground on The 105 in March 2020. The firm has been working closely with Tishman Speyers Boston-based team throughout the process, including site selection, and will continue the close working relationship through the projects completion.

CRISPR, which currently has its R&D operations in Cambridge, Mass., plans to consolidate various office and laboratory operations in the Greater Boston area into the new Seaport building. The company was founded in 2013 and has grown into a leading gene-editing company focused on developing transformative gene-based medicines for a broad range of diseases. The parent company, CRISPR Therapeutics AG, is headquartered in Zurich and the wholly owned U.S. subsidiary CRISPR Therapeutics also has business offices in San Francisco and London. Officials said this week that the single Boston location should support its anticipated growth for five to seven years from occupancy in 2022. CRISPR also announced Monday in its second-quarter 2020 earnings report that it is building a new cell therapy and manufacturing facility in Framingham, Mass.

Breakthrough Properties CEO Dan Belldegrun said Breakthroughs mission is to deliver cutting-edge facilities and environments that support companies like CRISPR. He noted in prepared remarks that the company was honored to play a small but supportive role in CRISPRs future as it develops therapies that change the way we fight disease.

Located on the A Street Corridor, The 105 is located near the Red Lines Broadway Station and a 10-minute ride from Kendall Square in Cambridge. Designed by the Payette architecture firm to be a best-in-class laboratory asset, Breakthrough will be seeking LEED Gold and Fitwell certifications for the building. Amenities will include a fitness center, indoor bicycle room, outdoor terraces accessible from the second and third floors, meeting space, and a locker room with showers.

Cushman & Wakefield represented CRISPR and Breakthrough was represented by Newmark Knight Frank in the lease transaction.

Last month, Hines also entered the life sciences market, unveiling a new partnership with 2ML Real Estate to develop a biotech and mixed-use hub in Houston. Levit Green will span more than 52 acres and be adjacent to the Texas Medical Center, the worlds largest cluster of medical facilities and businesses. 2ML is supplying the land for the project. Preliminary plans call for a mix of research, office, residential, retail and dining uses, along with outdoor amenities and green space.

Hines and Tishman Speyer are among a growing group of commercial real estate developers expanding recently into the burgeoning life sciences sector. Boston Properties teamed up with Alexandria Real Estate Equities in January to develop a 1.7 million-square-foot life science campus in South San Francisco. In October, LaSalle Investment Management took a stake in the San Diego headquarters of Illumina, a DNA sequencing and array-based technologies firm. Last summer, Thor Equities launched its Thor Sciences division to invest in biotech properties.

UW researchers devise approach to treat rare, incurable form of blindness – University of Wisconsin-Madison

Scientists at the University of WisconsinMadison have published a proof-of-concept method to correct an inherited form of macular degeneration that causes blindness, and that is currently untreatable.

Andrew Hellpap608-225-5024ahellpap@uwhealth.org

The researchers were able to correct the disease in stem cells from patients with BEST1 mutations by overwhelming broken copies of the gene with many functional copies of BEST1. This approach worked for most, but not all, of the BEST1 mutations that they tested. As an alternative approach for mutations that did not respond to this gene augmentation method, the team used CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing to target and correct the mutations.

A paper chronicling the research, co-led by David Gamm, MD, PhD, professor of ophthalmology and visual sciences in the School of Medicine and Public Health, was published online July 23 in the American Journal of Human Genetics. The study was also led by Kris Saha, PhD, associate professor of biomedical engineering and Wisconsin Institute for Discovery, and Bikash Pattnaik, PhD, assistant professor of pediatrics.

This BEST1 gene encodes a protein that regulates the movement of chloride across a layer of the retina called the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE). Best disease is dominant, meaning that people who inherit only one faulty copy of the BEST1 gene from either their mother or their father will develop the disorder. Mutations in BEST1 cause the retinal layer to break down, resulting in blurred central vision that progresses to irreversible vision loss.

People with Best disease have a wide range of mutations that can affect different parts of the protein, all of which were thought to require complex, individualized gene therapies to fix them, Gamm said. We found that many of these mutations were actually very sensitive to a broader gene therapy method that is already established for other retinal diseases.

Fixing a dominant genetic disease via gene therapy typically requires precise removal or repair of the nonfunctional gene without causing harm to the functional gene a difficult task that is frequently unsuccessful. In contrast, recessive genetic diseases that arise when a person inherits two nonfunctional genes one from each parent can be corrected by a technique called gene augmentation. This well-established process introduces a functional copy of the gene to fill the void.

To use another analogy, dominant mutations produce workers that actively look to sabotage the efforts of their capable coworkers, whereas recessive mutations produce proteins that never show up for work at all, Gamm said. As it turns out, the latter situation is usually simpler to treat than the former.

A team of researchers at the McPherson Eye Research Institute, which Gamm directs, hypothesized that it may be possible to adequately dilute the influence of the nonfunctional BEST1 protein by counter-balancing it with many functional copies of BEST1 protein through gene augmentation.

In the lab, the approach worked in RPE cells derived from induced pluripotent stem cells of patients with most, but not all, of the BEST1 gene mutations they tested. Where gene augmentation did not succeed, the team was able to correct the dysfunction using CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing.

The research was carried out in large part by Divya Sinha, PhD, an assistant scientist in Gamms lab, Ben Steyer, a former MD-PhD student in Sahas lab, and Pawan Shahi, PhD, postdoctoral research associate in Pattnaiks lab. The research team also included Sushmita Roy, PhD, associate professor of biostatics and medical informatics at the UW School of Medicine and Public Health and Wisconsin Institute for Discovery.

The scientists demonstrated that their two-pronged gene therapy strategy may hold potential to treat all Best disease mutations in a highly effective manner.

We were able to reverse the disease in all the cell lines using one method or the other, Gamm said. We were also able to determine which mutations were likely to respond to the first-line gene augmentation strategy, and which would be better served with the second-line gene editing approach.

An additional benefit came into focus as this research progressed, according to Gamm.

Our findings also could be applicable to some dominant genetic mutations that affect tissues elsewhere in the body, he said. Its very exciting.
