Mutagenomics: A Rapid, High-Throughput Method to Identify Causative Mutations from a Genetic Screen.

Abstract excerpt

Genetic screens are powerful tools to dissect complex biological processes, but a rate-limiting step is often the cloning of targeted genes. Here, we present a strategy, "mutagenomics," to identify causal mutations from a screen in a high throughput fashion in the absence of backcrossing. Mutagenomics is initiated by sequencing the genomes of the mutants identified, which are then subjected to a three-stage...
