TLDR
By serial subcloning, a near-haploid subclone (P1-55) is isolated from a heterogeneous human leukemia cell line, KBM-7, which has approximately half the human diploid DNA content and has a haploid karyotype except for a disomy of chromosome 8.

High-throughput functional genomics using CRISPR–Cas9

TL;DR: A review of the latest applications of CRISPR-Cas9 in mammalian functional genomics screens is presented in this article, which covers related genome-scale applications of Cas9 for either gene knockout or transcriptional modulation.

Haploid Genetic Screens in Human Cells Identify Host Factors Used by Pathogens

TL;DR: Using insertional mutagenesis to develop a screening method to generate null alleles in a human cell line haploid for all chromosomes except chromosome 8, host factors essential for infection with influenza and genes encoding important elements of the biosynthetic pathway of diphthamide, which are required for the cytotoxic effects ofdiphtheria toxin and exotoxin A are identified.

Caspase-mediated cleavage of phospholipid flippase for apoptotic phosphatidylserine exposure

TL;DR: Using a haploid genetic screen in human cells, it is found that ATP11C and CDC50A are required for aminophospholipid translocation from the outer to the inner plasma membrane leaflet; that is, they display flippase activity.

Obligate ligation-gated recombination (ObLiGaRe): custom-designed nuclease-mediated targeted integration through nonhomologous end joining.

TL;DR: ObLiGaRe is described, a new method for site-specific gene insertions that uses the efficient NHEJ pathway and acts independently of HR, and has enabled us to insert a 15-kb inducible gene expression cassette at a defined locus in human cell lines.

Altering the genome by homologous recombination.

TL;DR: The current status of gene targeting with particular emphasis on germ line modification of the mouse genome is discussed, and the different methods so far employed to identify those rare embryonic stem cells in which the desired targeting event has occurred are described.

TL;DR: Clones of homozygous fish have been produced from individual homozygotes and associated genetic methods facilitate genetic analyses of this vertebrate.

Bypass of Senescence After Disruption of p21CIP1/WAF1 Gene in Normal Diploid Human Fibroblasts

TL;DR: At the checkpoint between the prereplicative phase of growth and the phase of chromosome replication, cells lacking p21 failed to arrest the cell cycle in response to DNA damage, but their apoptotic response and genomic stability were unaltered.

Phenotypes of c-Myc-deficient rat fibroblasts isolated by targeted homologous recombination

TL;DR: The c-myc null cell lines reported here are a new experimental system in which to investigate the importance of putative c-Myc target genes and to identify novel downstream genes involved in cell cycle progression and apoptosis.
