Genome-scale perturb-seq in primary human CD4+ T cells maps context-specific regulators of T cell programs and human immune traits

This study perturbed all expressed genes across 22 million primary human CD4+ T cells from four donors and developed a probe-based perturb-seq platform to measure the transcriptome effects in cells at rest and after stimulation, allowing it to map genes regulating immune pathways, including previously uncharacterized r...

Virus-like particles enable targeted gene engineering and pooled CRISPR screening in primary human myeloid cells.

A virus-like particle (VLP)-based toolkit that delivers diverse CRISPR editing modalities to human monocytes, macrophages and dendritic cells with high efficiency while preserving viability and innate immune responsiveness is presented.
