ROCK2 Knockout Improves Proliferation Rate in a Cellular Model of Down Syndrome
2022-10-21
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> In a cellular model of Down Syndrome, hTERT immortalized RPE-1 (human retinal pigment epithelial-1) cells carrying an extra copy of chromosome 21 exhibit reduced fitness, in part, as an increase in doubling time (or a reduction in cell proliferation rate) in culture. ROCK2 (Rho associated coiled-coil containing kinase 2) was identified in a whole genome CRISPR knockout (KO) screen designed to id...
