Abstract excerpt
Human adenocarcinomas exhibit tissue-specific mutation and copy-number patterns that suggest diverse selective pressures and distinct oncogene dependencies. Here, we use our FiCASCan platform to test whether in vivo CRISPR activation screening can recapitulate oncogene selection during tumor initiation. Using CRISPRa-competent PPKS mice and intranasal or intraductal delivery of pooled lentivirus, we screen...
