The coordinated activation of DNA replication origins is important for efficient DNA synthesis and genome stability. S-phase cyclin dependent kinases (CDKs) together with CDC7 kinase, are essential to origin activation by converting the pre-replicative complex into a fully active helicase. To identi...

Cancer cells depend on mitochondria to sustain their increased metabolic needs therefore, mitochondria constitute an interesting target for cancer treatment. We recently developed novel small-molecule inhibitors of mitochondrial transcription (IMTs) that selectively target mitochondrial gene express...

The functional relevance of many microRNAs in the context of tumor biology remains unclear. Using CRISPR-Cas9 technology, we performed a global loss-of-function screen to test the impact of individual microRNAs on the growth of FLT3-ITD positive leukemia cells. This approach identified both evolutio...

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/Cas...

To identify new therapeutic targets for Glioblastoma (GBM), we performed genome-wide CRISPR-Cas9 "knockout" (KO) screens in patient-derived GBM stem-like cells (GSCs) and human neural stem/progenitors (NSCs), non-neoplastic stem cell controls, for genes required for their in vitro growth. ...

Accumulation of aggregated and misfolded proteins, leading to endoplasmic reticulum stress and activation of the unfolded protein response, is a hallmark of several neurodegenerative disorders, including Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease. Genetic screens are powerful tools that are proving invalua...

SMYD5 is a regulator of the mild hypothermia response [CRISPR-Cas9 screen]
Identification of novel genetic interactions with Recql4 in a genome-wide CRISPR/Cas9 rescue screen.
A secondary custom CRISPR-Cas9 screen, encompassing the 132 genes identified in the genome-wide TP53 knockout screen along with additional 93 genes serving as positive and negative controls.
