CRISPR activation and interference screens decode stimulation responses in primary human T cells – Science
CRISPR genome editing has served as a powerful tool to delete or modify DNA sequences and study the resulting effect. Now, researchers at the Gladstone Institutes and UC San Francisco (UCSF) have co-opted the CRISPR-Cas9 system to forcibly turn on genes rather than edit them in human immune cells. The method, known as CRISPRa, allowed […]
