Mashup Score: 1Deficiency of MicroRNA-181a Results in Transcriptome-Wide Cell-Specific Changes in the Kidney and Increases Blood Pressure - 3 year(s) ago
MicroRNA miR-181a is downregulated in the kidneys of hypertensive patients and hypertensive mice. In vitro, miR-181a is a posttranslational inhibitor of renin expression, but pleiotropic mechanisms b

Mashup Score: 5Chemical-genetic CRISPR-Cas9 screens in human cells using a pathway-specific library: STAR Protocols - 3 year(s) ago
Summary The development of CRISPR-Cas9 screening techniques coupled with chemical inhibition of specific biological processes enables high-throughput investigation into many areas of molecular biology. We present a protocol to conduct ubiquitin proteasome system-specific chemical-genetic CRISPR-Cas9 screens in the human HAP1 cell line. This protocol can be adapted for use…

Mashup Score: 2Generating mutant Aedes aegypti mosquitoes using the CRISPR/Cas9 system: STAR Protocols - 3 year(s) ago
Summary Implementation of CRISPR/Cas9 methodologies for mosquito gene editing has not yet become widespread. This protocol details the procedure for Aedes aegypti mosquito gene editing using homology-directed repair and fluorescent marker insertion, which facilitates the generation and screening of mutant mosquito lines for gene function testing. We describe optimized methods for single guide RNA…
