Project description:Kaposi’s Sarcoma associated herpesvirus (KSHV) is an oncogenic human virus and leading cause of mortality in HIV infection. Reactivation of KSHV from latent to lytic stage infection initiates a cascade of viral gene expression, and here we show how these changes remodel the host cell proteome to enable viral replication. By undertaking a systematic and unbiased analysis of changes to the endothelial cell proteome following lytic KSHV reactivation, we quantify >7000 cellular and 71 viral proteins. Lytic KSHV infection resulted in >2-fold downregulation of 291 cellular proteins, including PKR, the key cellular sensor of double-stranded RNA. A complementary KSHV genome-wide CRISPR genetic screen identified K5 as the viral gene responsible for the downregulation of two novel KSHV targets, Nectin-2 and CD155, both ligands of the NK cell DNAM-1 receptor. Despite the high episome copy number, we show that CRISPR Cas9 provides a remarkably efficient way to target KSHV genomes.

Project description:To search for factors regulating paternally imprinted genes (PEGs), we performed a genome-wide loss-of-function CRISPR/Cas9 screen in haploid parthenogenetic ESCs. This by staining a pooled CRISPR library with a PEG10 antibody and next FACS-sorted for cells that presented de-novo PEG10 expression.
Project description:This is data for the evaluation of a new way of counting sgRNAs in CRISPR screens using padlock probes and UMIs. It is compared to the typical PCR-based approach. In particular, a dropout screen was performed in MiaPaCa-2 cells using the Human Kinome CRISPR pooled library (Addgene #75314)
Project description:An sgRNA sub-pool derived from hits and controls in a whole genome screen (PMID: 33122441) was used to investigate genes which are essential during latent KSHV infection of human endothelial cells. The initial pool of library transduced cells was used to confirm efficient transduction of the library and effective selection against sgRNAs targeting generally essential genes over the course of the 8 day experiment. Two replicate experiments were done and comparisons between mock infected and KSHV infected cells was used to identify KSHV infection-specific essential genes.
