Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Pathogenic variants of FIG4 generate enlarged lysosomes and neurological and developmental disorders. To identify additional genes regulating lysosomal volume, we carried out a genome-wide activation screen to detect suppression of enlarged lysosomes in FIG4-/- cells. METHODS: The CRISPR-a gene activation screen utilized sgRNAs from the promoters of protein-coding genes. Fluorescence-activated cell...
