    CasKAS: direct profiling of genome-wide dCas9 and Cas9 specificity using ssDNA map**

    Detecting and mitigating off-target activity is critical to the practical application of CRISPR-mediated genome and epigenome editing. While numerous methods have been developed to map Cas9 binding specificity...

    Nociceptor neurons affect cancer immunosurveillance

    Solid tumours are innervated by nerve fibres that arise from the autonomic and sensory peripheral nervous systems15. Whether the neo-innervation of tumours by pain-initiating sensory neurons affects cancer immun...

    Transcription-dependent domain-scale three-dimensional genome organization in the dinoflagellate Breviolum minutum

    Dinoflagellate chromosomes represent a unique evolutionary experiment, as they exist in a permanently condensed, liquid crystalline state; are not packaged by histones; and contain genes organized into tandem ...

    Mitigation of off-target toxicity in CRISPR-Cas9 screens for essential non-coding elements

    Pooled CRISPR-Cas9 screens are a powerful method for functionally characterizing regulatory elements in the non-coding genome, but off-target effects in these experiments have not been systematically evaluated...

    An improved ATAC-seq protocol reduces background and enables interrogation of frozen tissues

    The Omni-ATAC protocol improves the signal-to-background ratio in chromatin accessibility profiles and is suitable for a range of cell lines and primary cell types, as well as frozen tissue.

    Genome-scale transcriptional activation by an engineered CRISPR-Cas9 complex

    Systematic interrogation of gene function requires the ability to perturb gene expression in a robust and generalizable manner. Here we describe structure-guided engineering of a CRISPR-Cas9 complex to mediate...
