CRISPR Screens Identify Essential Cell Growth Mediators in BRAF-inhibitor Resistant Melanoma

2019-12-17

Abstract excerpt

BRAF is a serine-threonine kinase that harbors activating mutations in ∼7% of human malignancies and ∼60% of melanomas. Despite initial clinical responses to BRAF inhibitors (BRAFi), patients frequently develop drug resistance. To identify candidate therapeutic targets for BRAFi-resistant melanoma, we conducted CRISPR screens in melanoma cells harboring an activating BRAF mutation that had also acquired resistance...
