Project description:To search for factors regulating paternally imprinted genes (PEGs), we performed a genome-wide CRISPR/Cas9 screen in haploid hpESCs, and further analyzed the molecular phenotype upon perturbation of candidate PEGs regulators.

Project description:To elucidate the early regulators of inflammation during Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection, we performed a genome-wide CRISPR knockout screen in macrophages to identify genes that influence the induction of TNF and iNOS upon infection. A genome-wide knockout library in murine macrophages was infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis and 24 hours post infection cells were FACS sorted based on TNF and iNOS expression. Samples were collected from the unsorted library, as well as two sorted populations: TNF positive and iNOS negative, and TNF positive and iNOS positive.
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:To search for host factors regulating Zika virus infection, we performed a genome-wide loss-of-function CRISPR/Cas9 screen in haploid human ESCs. The regulators were identified by the quantification of enrichment of their mutant clones within a pooled loss-of-function library upon Zika virus infection.
Project description:To search for host factors regulating SARS-COV-2 infection, we performed a genome-wide loss-of-function CRISPR/Cas9 screen in haploid human ESCs. The regulators were identified by the quantification of enrichment of their mutant clones within a pooled loss-of-function library upon SARS-COV-2 infection.
