In the final chapter of my 2012 book The Forever Fix: Gene Therapy and the Boy Who Saved It , I predicted that the technology would soon expand well beyond the rare disease world. The package insert for the drug, Elevidys , warns of adverse effects of acute liver injury and inflammation around the heart and muscles. million DNA bases.

Rolf Turk , Senior Manager, Genomics Medicine at Integrated DNA Technologies, examines how CRISPR is being used to enhance cancer therapies. These methods offer safer CAR T-based therapies, laying the foundation for clinical trials and the rapid development of a new generation of CAR T cells for both autologous and allogeneic use.

In the case of semaglutide, those cells are Saccharomyces cerevisiae— also known as Baker’s yeast — engineered to secrete a peptide precursor that is later purified, chemically modified, packaged into an injectable or tablet form, and then shipped around the world. Continuing this method may not scale.

DNA sequences are designed on a computer, and it takes a dozen or more clicks to change a single nucleotide. DNA sequences are also checked by hand, so it’s easy to make a mistake. The tool outputs a DNA sequence that encodes all the required enzymes. Anyone who has tried to engineer a cell knows how tedious it can be.
