Genome-wide CRISPR screen in a mouse model of tumor growth and metastasis

TL;DR: In this paper, a genome-wide CRISPR/Cas9-mediated loss-of-function screen in tumor growth and metastasis was described. But the authors focused on the effect of mutations on primary tumor growth positively correlates with the development of metastases.
Journal ArticleDOI

High-resolution interrogation of functional elements in the noncoding genome

TL;DR: A CRISPR screen using ~18,000 single guide RNAs targeting >700 kilobases surrounding the genes NF1, NF2, and CUL3, which are involved in BRAF inhibitor resistance in melanoma, finds that noncoding locations that modulate drug resistance also harbor predictive hallmarks ofnoncoding function.

Genome-wide CRISPR Screen in a Mouse Model of Tumor Growth and Metastasis

TL;DR: This study demonstrates Cas9-based screening as a robust method to systematically assay gene phenotypes in cancer evolution in vivo and demonstrates the effect of mutations on primary tumor growth positively correlates with the development of metastases.

Cas13b is a Type VI-B CRISPR-associated RNA-Guided RNase differentially regulated by accessory proteins Csx27 and Csx28

TL;DR: In this article, a computational sequence database mining approach was used to identify two Class 2 CRISPR-Cas systems (subtype VI-B) that lack Cas1 and Cas2 and encompass a single large effector protein, Cas13b, along with one of two previously uncharacterized associated proteins, Csx27 or Csax28.
