Genetic dissection of mammalian ERAD through comparative haploid and CRISPR forward genetic screens

Abstract

CRISPR/Cas9-mediated forward genetic screens and gene-trap mutagenesis screens in haploid cells are both powerful techniques to examine gene function. Here, the authors show the two approaches have high concordance and identify an uncharacterized gene, TXNDC11, which is involved in endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation.
