The UK genome editing market presents several potential opportunities that favor an increase in the usage of advanced genome editing tools. Numerous efforts undertaken by UK-based genome editing companies and funding initiatives supported by private & public entities drive the UK genome editing market.

In December 2020, Horizon Discovery granted two commercial licenses to Sanyou Biopharmaceuticals for its cGMP compliant CHOSOURCE platform. Sanyou was expected to utilize Horizon’s gene-edited CHO-K1 GS knockout cell line in contract research and development services and biotherapeutics pipeline development.

Adopting new rules related to genome editing creates an opportunity for the market, and the UK government is planning to change the rules related to gene editing to cut red tape and make R&D easier.
