The Rubin Lab's first preprint is OUT on bioRxiv! ✨📄This lab-wide effort involved many amazing collaborations and fun conversations about the big wide world of CRISPR-associated transposons ⬇️ Thank you to our funders + everyone who contributed to making this project possible!.
I'm excited to share the 1st preprint from @therubinlab, co-led by @LeoCTSong and I. We performed RB-TnSeq to identify host genes important for CRISPR-associated transposon (CAST) integration. The screen was leveraged to improve CAST editing in bacteria.
