Quite possible. Nobody wants another hERG fiasco.
- whymauri 5y agoDid someone try editing out hERG?!
- ellimilial 5y agoA fair amount of drugs inhibiting it had to be recalled after https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/16554806 https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/16554806 and subsequent regulators actions.
- whymauri 5y agoOh, OK -- right hERG inhibition liability is a candidate killer. It's just since the topic was gene editing, I thought someone had experimented with editing hERG somehow which had me really confused.

- 9dev 5y agoTIL gogo dancers are probably named after a legendary rock club named „Whiskey A Go Go“, which inspired the name of a gene that causes the legs of anesthetized flies to shake similar to once-popular dance moves in said club. Fascinating.
