Traver Hart’s team evaluated a 77,000 dual-gRNA Cas12a library on bioRxiv, revealing that dual-target locus excision operates at very low efficiency in mammalian screens due to asynchronous cleavage dynamics. 🧬🤖

Before you pick a cell line, ask where the target actually matters. Disease Atlas reads CRISPR knockout screens by lineage: KRAS is a hard dependency in pancreatic and colorectal models, barely registers in brain or kidney. That gradient picks your model. #FunctionalGenomics

The strongest evidence a gene matters is what happens when you switch it off. Disease Atlas pulls the perturbation evidence for a target into one view: CRISPR, RNAi, over-expression, and what each did to the phenotype. The functional layer, next to the genetics. #FunctionalGenomics

Excellent meeting at #ESHG2026 Gothenburg. The gap between detection and interpretation remains one of the biggest challenges.

The convergence of genetics and cell biology is producing answers that directly impact patients.

Generalization matters:

Using PCA-derived tissue representations, it predicts splicing in unseen GTEx tissues and ENCODE cell lines

The mechanism is supported by RNA-seq, chromatin assays, and perturbation experiments. Turn IGF1R-AS1 off, enhancer contacts collapse, MYC expression drops. Causality is shown, not assumed.
