Project description:To identify which genes are regulated by KLF5 and its acetylation, we performed RNA-Seq and bioinformatics analyses in KLF5-null prostate cancer cells expressing KLF5, KLF5KR, and KLF5KQ.
Project description:CRISPR screen: U2OS or U2OS p53KO cells expressing Cas9 were transduced with a whole-genome library of CRISPR sgRNAs, then treated with either DMSO or etoposide. Differential sgRNA abundances were calculated for each condition and used to determine the effect of each single gene knockout on fitness and the drug-induced death rate. RNA-Seq: U2OS or U2OS p53KO cells were cultured with either DMSO or etoposide for 48 hours, and then U2OS cells were incubated in this conditioned media for 8 hours. RNA was collected and use to observe differential expression changes between conditions.
