Protocol for high-throughput screening of functional lysine residues in cell fitness
Summary: Amino acid residues are crucial to protein structure and function and have links to various human diseases. Here, we present a protocol for screening functional lysine residues across the human genome. We describe steps for designing lysine codon-targeting single-guide RNAs (sgRNAs), constr...

| Summary: | Summary: Amino acid residues are crucial to protein structure and function and have links to various human diseases. Here, we present a protocol for screening functional lysine residues across the human genome. We describe steps for designing lysine codon-targeting single-guide RNAs (sgRNAs), constructing an sgRNA library, conducting cell fitness screenings, and acquiring screening results. This approach leverages base editing and high-throughput screening techniques to systematically examine functional amino acid residues.For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Bao et al.1 : Publisher’s note: Undertaking any experimental protocol requires adherence to local institutional guidelines for laboratory safety and ethics. |
