AI model Claude discovers CRISPR-like enzyme system, Anthropic says

CorroboratedIndependently reported by at least two distinct newsrooms in our registry.

Cross-source confidence: 90% — how consistently independent sources report the same core facts, scored deterministically.

Anthropic’s AI model Claude has pinpointed a CRISPR-like enzyme system in bacteria, a breakthrough Stanford researchers confirmed in lab tests. The discovery centres on a protein complex from Bacillus subtilis, which may allow finer DNA edits than CRISPR-Cas9. Anthropic says AI sped up the prediction of its function. The findings, posted on bioRxiv, await peer review but suggest a shift in gene-editing precision.
