A Virus-Packageable CRISPR Screen Identifies Host Factors Mediating Interferon Inhibition of HIV

Interferon (IFN) inhibits HIV replication by inducing an array of antiviral effectors. Here we describe a novel CRISPR knockout screening approach to identify the ensemble of these HIV restriction factors. We assembled a CRISPR sgRNA library specific for Interferon Stimulated Genes (ISGs) into a modified lentiviral vector that allows for packaging of sgRNA-encoding genomes in trans into budding HIV-1 particles. We observed that knockout of Zinc Antiviral Protein (ZAP) improved the performance of...

Provenance — who produced it, who reused it

Linked to 1 papers in the literature. Roles are inferred factual signals (who deposited the data vs who reused it), with counts — never a judgement about any author.

Standardized, field-standard QC computed by touching the data — every metric states how it was obtained

No quantitative QC rubric exists for this data type yet, so it is deliberately left unscored — this is an honest "not applicable", not a poor rating.

measured = computed from the data · extrapolated/reported = derived or from the repository · dq-1.0 · provisional — verify independently
