Off-target effects as confounders of Cas13d-based lncRNA screens
2025-11-29
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Summary</h4> Despite their recognized role in biology, a majority of the ∼100,000 lncRNA genes remain functionally uncharacterized. In a recent study ( Liang WW et al ., Transcriptome-scale RNA-targeting CRISPR screens reveal essential lncRNAs in human cells, Cell, 2024) , Liang et al. utilized the RNA nuclease Cas13d to perturb ∼6,200 lncRNAs in fitness screens across five cell lines - thereby identifying...
