A pipeline for precise and efficient genome editing by sgRNA-Cas9 RNPs in Drosophila
Genome editing via homology-directed repair (HDR) has made possible precise and deliberate modifications to gene sequences. CRISPR/Cas9-mediated HDR is the simplest means to carry this out.

pgMAP: a pipeline to enable guide RNA read mapping from dual-targeting CRISPR screens [PDF]
We developed pgMAP, an analysis pipeline to map gRNA sequencing reads from dual-targeting CRISPR screens. pgMAP output includes a dual gRNA read counts table and quality control metrics including the proportion of correctly-paired reads and CRISPR library sequencing coverage across all time points and samples.

Stochastic variation in the FOXM1 transcription program mediates replication stress tolerance
Cellular heterogeneity is a major cause of drug resistance in cancer. Segeren et al. used single‐cell transcriptomics to investigate gene expression events that correlate with sensitivity to the DNA‐damaging drugs gemcitabine and prexasertib. They show that dampened expression of transcription factor FOXM1 and its target genes protected cells against ...

Identification of novel components of the Ced and Ups systems in Saccharolobus islandicus REY15A
In Sulfolobales cells, transcription of the Ups (UV‐inducible pili of Sulfolobus) and Ced (Crenarchaeal system for exchange of DNA) genes is highly induced by DNA damage, and the two systems play key roles in pili‐mediated cell aggregation and ...

The physicist's guide to one of biotechnology's hottest new topics: CRISPR-Cas [PDF]
Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) and CRISPR-associated proteins (Cas) constitute a multi-functional, constantly evolving immune system in bacteria and archaea cells. A heritable, molecular memory is generated of phage, plasmids, or other mobile genetic elements that attempt to attack the cell.

TOMM20 increases cancer aggressiveness by maintaining a reduced state with increased NADH and NADPH levels, oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS), and apoptosis resistance while reducing reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels. Conversely, CRISPR‐Cas9 knockdown of TOMM20 alters these cancer‐aggressive traits.

SpCas9-expression by tumor cells can cause T cell-dependent tumor rejection in immunocompetent mice
The CRISPR/Cas9 system has recently emerged as a highly efficient modality in genetic engineering and has been widely considered for various therapeutic applications. However, since the effector protein, SpCas9, has a bacterial origin, its immunogenicity

Phospholipids belong to a significant class of lipids and comprise ~10% of total lipids in rice grains. Lysophospholipid (LPL) is derived from the hydrolysis of phospholipids and plays an important role in rice grain quality.
