    Discovering root causal genes with high-throughput perturbations

    Eric V Strobl, Eric Gamazon
    Root causal genes correspond to the initial changes to gene expression that induce a diagnosis and can be reliably detected from bulk RNA-seq after determining a causal ordering from Perturb-seq.

    Improved base editing and functional screening in Leishmania via co-expression of the AsCas12a ultra variant, a T7 RNA polymerase, and a cytosine base editor

    Nicole Herrmann May, Anh Cao ... Tom Beneke
    An optimized cytosine base editing system for Leishmania species improves editing efficiency, reduces toxicity, and ensures stable guide expression, enabling scalable loss-of-function screening and efficient creation of functional mutants.

    Multiplexed assays of human disease-relevant mutations reveal UTR dinucleotide composition as a major determinant of RNA stability

    Jia-Ying Su, Yun-Lin Wang ... Chien-Ling Lin
    The UA-dinucleotide ratio in UTRs is negatively correlated with RNA stability both in the massively parallel reporter assay and in vivo, and is prevalent in fast-turnover genes.
