Positive Genetic

Mutations/deletions in separate genes, each of which alone causes a minimal phenotype, but when combined in the same cell results in a less severe fitness defect than expected under a given condition. This term is reserved for high or low throughput studies with scores.

Sequential genome-wide CRISPR-Cas9 screens identify genes regulating cell-surface expression of tetraspanins.

Yang J, Guo F, Chin HS, Chen GB, Ang CH, Lin Q, Hong W, Fu NY

Tetraspanins, a superfamily of membrane proteins, mediate diverse biological processes through tetraspanin-enriched microdomains in the plasma membrane. However, how their cell-surface presentation is controlled remains unclear. To identify the regulators of tetraspanin trafficking, we conduct sequential genome-wide loss-of-function CRISPR-Cas9 screens based on cell-surface expression of a tetraspanin member, TSPAN8. Several genes potentially involved in endoplasmic reticulum (ER) targeting, different biological ... [more]
