CRISPR-mediated Activation of Latent HIV-1 Expression.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that engineered transcriptional activation systems based on CRISPR/Cas9 can be harnessed to activate viral gene expression in cell line models of HIV-1 latency and that their use, in combination with antiretroviral therapy, could lead to improved therapies for HIV- 1 infection.
Journal ArticleDOI

Delivery of CRISPR/Cas9 for therapeutic genome editing.

TL;DR: The modes of CRisPR/Cas9 delivery, the barriers to the delivery process and the application of CRISPR/ Cas9 system for the treatment of genetic disorders are discussed and several representative types of non‐viral vectors are highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI

CRISPR activation and interference screens decode stimulation responses in primary human T cells

TL;DR: G genome-wide CRISPR activation and interference screens are reported in primary human T cells to identify gene networks controlling interleukin-2 (IL-2) and interferon-γ (IFN-γ) production and reveal tunable regulators of human T cell activity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Versatile in vivo regulation of tumor phenotypes by dCas9-mediated transcriptional perturbation

TL;DR: It is shown that catalytically dead Cas9 (dCas9) targeted to genomic regions upstream or downstream of the transcription start site allows for specific and sustainable gene-expression level alterations in tumor cells in vitro and in syngeneic immune-competent mouse models.

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.
Journal ArticleDOI

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.
