Guide RNAs with embedded barcodes boost CRISPR-pooled screens

TL;DR: The iBAR approach reduces the starting cells at high MOI significantly with greatly improved efficiency and accuracy compared with the canonical CRISPR screens at a low MOI.
Journal ArticleDOI

CRISPR-Cas9 technology: applications in genome engineering, development of sequence-specific antimicrobials, and future prospects

TL;DR: The origins and mechanistic basis of CRISPR-Cas systems are reviewed, how this technology can be leveraged to provide a range of applications in both eukaryotic and prokaryotic systems are discussed, and limitations and future prospects are outlined.
Journal ArticleDOI

Specific induction of endogenous viral restriction factors using CRISPR/Cas-derived transcriptional activators.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that Cas9-derived transcriptional activators have the potential to be used for screens for endogenous genes that affect virus replication and raise the possibility that synthetic transcription factors might prove clinically useful if efficient delivery mechanisms could be developed.

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.

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.
