Brief Summary: These authors performed exhaustive saturation genome editing (SGE) of BAP1 (BRCA1-associated protein 1), the disruption of which is linked to tumorigenesis and altered neurodevelopment. 18,108 unique variants were characterized, of which 6,196 were found to have abnormal functions. These were then used to evaluate phenotypic associations in the UK Biobank. BAP1 variants were also characterized in a large population-ascertained tumor collection,...

To read the full abstract: Nat Genet 2017;49:1231-1238This large international initiative is a major collaboration across 25 research institutes that was set up as part of the scientific community’s response to concerns regarding the notoriously poor reproducibility of scientific research. Up to now, many mouse gene knock-outs have been made and reported, but inconsistency between finding...
