Deskripsi
Cancer therapy drugs are designed to target genetic vulnerabilities, but loss-of-function screens often fail to identify essential genes in drug mechanism studies. Here the authors demonstrate CRISPRres, which exploits in-frame variation generated by indel formation to discover gene-drug interactions.
