AcrIIA5 Inhibits a Broad Range of Cas9 Orthologs by Preventing DNA Target Cleavage

open access: yesCell Reports, 2019
Summary: CRISPR-Cas9 is an adaptive immune system for prokaryotes to defend against invasive genetic elements such as phages and has been used as a powerful tool for genome editing and modulation.

CRISPR–Cas9 Based Bacteriophage Genome Editing

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2022
Bacteriophages are the most abundant entities in the biosphere, and many genomes of rare and novel bacteriophages have been sequenced to date. However, bacteriophage functional genomics has been limited by a lack of effective research methods.

IMPDH inhibition enhances cytarabine efficacy in SAMHD1‐expressing leukaemia cells via guanine nucleotide depletion

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cytarabine is a key therapy for acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), but its efficacy is limited by the dNTPase SAMHD1, which hydrolyses its active metabolite. Screening nucleotide biosynthesis inhibitors revealed that IMPDH inhibitors selectively sensitise SAMHD1‐proficient AML cells to cytarabine.

Efficient Multiple Genome Modifications Induced by the crRNAs, tracrRNA and Cas9 Protein Complex in Zebrafish. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
The type II clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) associated with Cas9 endonuclease (CRISPR/Cas9) has become a powerful genetic tool for understanding the function of a gene of interest.

High-Resolution Analysis of the Efficiency, Heritability, and Editing Outcomes of CRISPR/Cas9-Induced Modifications of NCED4 in Lettuce (Lactuca sativa). [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
CRISPR/Cas9 is a transformative tool for making targeted genetic alterations. In plants, high mutation efficiencies have been reported in primary transformants. However, many of the mutations analyzed were somatic and therefore not heritable.

CD47 promotes mitogen‐activated protein kinase and epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition molecular programs to drive prometastatic phenotypes in non‐small cell lung cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Beyond its role in immune evasion, this study identified that CD47 drives tumor‐intrinsic signaling in non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Transcriptomic profiling and functional studies revealed that CD47 regulates cell adhesion, migration, and metastasis through an ERK–EMT signaling axis.

Production of CRISPR/Cas9-Mediated Self-Cleaving Helper-Dependent Adenoviruses

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Methods & Clinical Development, 2019
Prolonged expression of CRISPR/Cas9 raises concerns about off-target cleavage, cytotoxicity, and immune responses. To address these issues, we have developed a system to produce helper-dependent adenoviruses that express CRISPR/Cas9 to direct cleavage of
