In this application note, we present a novel all-in-one human whole-genome CRISPRi platform. We demonstrate its effectiveness in identifying resistance and sensitivity genes to the BRAF inhibitor vemurafenib.
The ability to negatively control transcription by several orders of magnitude offers researchers the opportunity to identify novel hits in both positive and negative selection screens where dCas9 is non-mutagenic.
