Of course this isn’t the only unintended damage caused to the #DNA by #NGT. Caution and careful examination of GMOs with proper techniques is absolutely appropriate.
It also shows that this research area is still very young, there is a lot we don’t know yet. It’s too early to deregulate it.

@emmecola@fediscience.org Perhaps one thing to clarify: the illustration I posted isn’t directly from the paper, but was made by Michael Antoniou (a professor in molecular genetics at King’s College London) who reported on the paper.
