Abstract
In this study the authors examine the allelic imbalance (AI) landscape of colorectal cancer, reporting loss of TP53 as a driver of AI. They use CRISPR-Cas9 screens to identify 79 genes (within AI regions) regulating cell growth and identify a network of transcription factors that may contribute to colorectal tumorigenesis.
