In vivo and in vitro human gene essentiality estimations capture contrasting functional constraints
2019-10-22
Abstract excerpt
Gene essentiality estimation is a popular empirical approach to link genotypes to phenotypes. In humans, essentiality is estimated based on loss-of-function (LoF) mutation intolerance, either from population exome sequencing (in vivo) data or CRISPR-based in vitro perturbation experiments. Both approaches identify genes presumed to have strong detrimental consequences on the organism upon mutation. Are these genes...
