A rapamycin-induced proximity assay enables rapid identification of optimal E3 ligases for target protein degradation in living cells, streamlining early-stage proteolysis targeting chimera development.
A high-throughput functional validation system for large numbers of candidate disease genes enables in vivo functional testing of specific gene variants.
The lncRNA landscapes in human germ cells are comprehensively profiled and the functional role of an lncRNA LNC1845 in regulating gene expression of a neighboring coding gene LHX8 is elucidated.
