Project description:Genome wide CRISPR screen was performed to find resistance to targeted drugs for melanoma and lung .
This dataset contains all the data available for this study on 2019-08-28.
Project description:Genome-wide CRISPR-Cas9 knockout screen using TKOv1 sgRNA library was performed in isogenic RBM10-proficient and RBM10-deficient HCC827 cells.
Project description:Docetaxel chemotherapy in metastatic prostate cancer offers only a modest survival benefit due to emerging resistance. To identify candidate therapeutic gene targets, we applied a murine prostate cancer orthograft model that recapitulates clinical invasive prostate cancer in a genome-wide CRISPR/Cas9 screen under docetaxel treatment pressure.
Project description:To search for factors regulating neuronal differentiation, we performed a genome-wide loss-of-function CRISPR/Cas9 screen in haploid human ESCs. The regulators were identified by the quantification of depletion of their mutant clones within a pooled loss-of-function library upon neuronal differentiation.
Project description:This is an in vitro genome-wide CRISPR/cas9 screen in human glioblastoma stem cells, screening for genes essential for survival of these cells. These cells express cas9 and have been transfected with a guide RNA library causing gene knockouts. We will analyse the sequencing data for depletion of guide RNAs.

Project description:The cellular processes that govern tumor resistance to immunotherapy remain poorly understood. To gain insight into these processes, we perform a genome-scale CRISPR activation screen for genes that enable human melanoma cells to evade cytotoxic T cell killing. Overexpression of four top candidate genes (CD274 (PD-L1), MCL1, JUNB, and B3GNT2) confer resistance in diverse cancer cell types and mouse xenografts. By investigating the resistance mechanisms, we find that MCL1 and JUNB modulate the mitochondrial apoptosis pathway. JUNB encodes a transcription factor that downregulates FasL and TRAIL receptors, upregulates the MCL1 relative BCL2A1, and activates the NF-B pathway. B3GNT2 encodes a poly-N-acetyllactosamine synthase that targets >10 ligands and receptors to disrupt interactions between tumor and T cells and reduce T cell activation. Inhibition of candidate genes sensitize tumor models to T cell cytotoxicity. Our results demonstrate that systematic gain-of-function screening can elucidate resistance pathways and identify potential targets for cancer immunotherapy.
