Expanding the repertoire of glucocorticoid receptor target genes by engineering genomic response elements

TL;DR: It is shown that addition of a single transcription factor binding site can be sufficient to convert a gene into a glucocorticoid receptor target, and activation can be facilitated by distinct sequences without obvious differences in activity between the GR-binding sequence variants the authors tested.

LADL: Light-activated dynamic looping for endogenous gene expression control

TL;DR: Light-activated dynamic looping system (LADL) facilitates loop synchronization across a large population of cells without exogenous chemical cofactors and can enable future efforts to engineer reversible and oscillatory looping on short time scales.

CRISPR-Cas9 Based Genome Engineering: Opportunities in Agri-Food-Nutrition and Healthcare.

TL;DR: This review focuses on the CRISPR system from its discovery and role in bacterial adaptive immunity to the most recent developments, and its possible applications in agriculture and modern medicine.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reprogramming cell fate with artificial transcription factors.

TL;DR: This work compares the unique strengths and limitations of different ATF platforms, highlight the advantages of cooperative assembly, and present the potential of ATF libraries in revealing gene regulatory networks that govern cell fate choices.
Journal ArticleDOI

CRISPR-based methods for high-throughput annotation of regulatory DNA

TL;DR: Recent progress in assigning function to the non-coding genome using CRISPR-based genomic and epigenomic screens are reviewed, and the prospects of these technologies to transforming the authors' understanding of genome structure and regulation are discussed.

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.
