Arrayed CRISPRko screening in primary human regulatory B cells

15 Sept 2020

In this poster, Horizon Discovery demonstrates the full potential of arrayed CRISPRko screening in regulatory B cells (Bregs) and discusses how it has developed a co-culture assay where impaired proliferation of T cells acts as a functional readout of the suppressive nature of Bregs.

CRISPR Screening Services

CRISPR Screening Services Horizon offers comprehensive CRISPR screening services from screen design and cell line selection to sophisticated bioinformatics analysis of the screen results. Our best-in-class CRISPR KO (knockout), CRISPRi (interference) and CRISPRa (activation) screening platforms can significantly advance our customers’ drug development programs by offering the highest quality and highest confidence in their screening results. Data analysis services, including sample preparation, Next-Gen Sequencing, and hit calling, can be provided for users of Edit-R Lentiviral sgRNA Pooled Screening Libraries. Simply provide whole cell pellets for each of your samples and we’ll do the rest. We can also help with the NGS data analysis and hit calling for data created using the Edit-R Pooled sgRNA Indexing PCR and Sequencing Primer Kits. Types of CRISPR Screen Expertise includes whole-genome and custom targeted drug resistance and sensitivity screens, synthetic lethality target discovery screens and complex phenotypic screens using a FACS-based readout. We have optimized 50+ cell lines for CRISPR screening and have completed over 300 screens to date. We offer a choice of CRISPR screen types depending on the expression effect you require: CRISPR KO screening with complete loss of gene expression provides the maximal window for phenotypic effect and high statistical power for hit discovery CRISPRi screening represses expression rather than completely knocking out the target gene and is ideally suited to study druggability and to evaluate the function of genes that when knocked-out are essential or that are amplified CRISPRa screening amplifies gene expression in its endogenous context and enables for the first time, to study activation-linked responses on a genome-wide level Dual CRISPRi & CRISPRa screening

ImmunologyImmunological techniques measure and characterize immune responses. Immunology kits and analysis systems often use techniques such as ELISA, radioimmunoassay (RIA) and immunodiffusion assays, Immunohistochemistry, and flow cytometry. Immunologists use equipment such as flow Cytometers, plate readers, plate washers and fluorescent microscopes.CRISPRCRISPR technology enables precise editing of genes, allowing scientists to modify DNA at specific locations. This revolutionary tool is used in genetic research, drug development, and gene therapy. CRISPR has applications in agriculture, disease treatment, and creating genetically modified organisms (GMOs).
