Replicon-based genome-wide CRISPR knockout screening for the identification of host factors involved in viral replication - Nature Communications
Cheng et al., use non-infectious stable viral replicon cell lines in genome-wide CRISPR KO screens across diverse viral pathogens to identify host factors specifically involved in the intracellular stages of viral replication.

What is your research about and what MS instrument are you using?
I work on protein-protein interactions between Lassa-virus proteins and human hostfactors. I try to find possible interaction partners using native MS (on a QE UHMR Instrument)...
