Ligand-Free Estrogen Receptor α (ESR1) as Master Regulator for the Expression of CYP3A4 and Other Cytochrome P450 Enzymes in the Human Liver

TL;DR: It is found that ESR1 serves as a key transcription factor function in regulating CYP3A4, the main drug metabolizing enzymes in liver, and it appears to be acting at least in part in a ligand-free fashion.
Journal ArticleDOI

Exploiting CRISPR Cas9 in Three-Dimensional Stem Cell Cultures to Model Disease.

TL;DR: An overview of bridging of CRISPR Cas9 genome editing with 3D spheroid and organoid cell culture to better understand disease progression in both patient and non-patient derived cells is provided, and potential remaining gaps that must be overcome are addressed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modular Ligation Extension of Guide RNA Operons (LEGO) for Multiplexed dCas9 Regulation of Metabolic Pathways in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

TL;DR: A TEF1p-tRNA expression system is developed and it is demonstrated that the use of tRNAs as splicing elements flanking sgRNAs provides higher efficiency than both Pol III and ribozyme-based expression across a variety of single sgRNA and multiplexed contexts.

Rational design of a compact CRISPR-Cas9 activator for AAV-mediated delivery

TL;DR: A compact CRISPR-Cas9 activator for convenient AAV-mediated delivery is engineer and the efficacy of the CRISpr- Cas9 transcriptional activation using AAV delivery in several cell lines is validated.
Journal ArticleDOI

CRISPR/Cas9 System: A Bacterial Tailor for Genomic Engineering.

TL;DR: The developments and its potential uses in the CRISPR/Cas9 technology as well as recent advancements in genome engineering using CRISpr/ Cas9 are reviewed.

Fast gapped-read alignment with Bowtie 2

TL;DR: Bowtie 2 combines the strengths of the full-text minute index with the flexibility and speed of hardware-accelerated dynamic programming algorithms to achieve a combination of high speed, sensitivity and accuracy.
Journal ArticleDOI

RSEM: accurate transcript quantification from RNA-Seq data with or without a reference genome

TL;DR: It is shown that accurate gene-level abundance estimates are best obtained with large numbers of short single-end reads, and estimates of the relative frequencies of isoforms within single genes may be improved through the use of paired- end reads, depending on the number of possible splice forms for each gene.
Journal ArticleDOI

A programmable dual-RNA-guided DNA endonuclease in adaptive bacterial immunity.

TL;DR: This study reveals a family of endonucleases that use dual-RNAs for site-specific DNA cleavage and highlights the potential to exploit the system for RNA-programmable genome editing.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia enables predictive modelling of anticancer drug sensitivity

TL;DR: The results indicate that large, annotated cell-line collections may help to enable preclinical stratification schemata for anticancer agents and the generation of genetic predictions of drug response in the preclinical setting and their incorporation into cancer clinical trial design could speed the emergence of ‘personalized’ therapeutic regimens.

Molecular signatures database (MSigDB) 3.0

TL;DR: A new version of the database, MSigDB 3.0, is reported, with over 6700 gene sets, a complete revision of the collection of canonical pathways and experimental signatures from publications, enhanced annotations and upgrades to the web site.
