This paper introduces an activity-based selection method to improve base editing efficiency and precision in identifying functional mutations.

The paper introduces a modular CRISPR vector assembly system called Fragmid, enabling rapid creation and testing of CRISPR technologies through combinatorial design and pooled screening.

The paper optimizes Cas12a for multiplexed CRISPRa screens in human cells, enabling simultaneous activation of up to four genes and identifying criteria for selecting effective guides.

The paper benchmarks SpCas9 variants to improve base editor screens for BRCA1 and BCL2, identifying new insights into their genetic variants.

This paper uses CRISPR-Cas9 base editors in pooled screens to assess the functional impact of human variants, identifying loss-of-function mutations and drug sensitivity/resistance mutations.

The paper identifies novel tumor suppressors from CRISPR screens and reveals rewired lipid metabolism in AML cells through functional analysis of gene modules.

This paper optimizes AsCas12a for combinatorial genetic screens in human cells by improving on-target and off-target activity and enabling higher-order multiplexing.
