Ever considered measuring genetic variant effects with prime editing but hesitated due to low and variable editing? Last month, 3 papers showed that large-scale screens can work 💪. A 🧵 comparing the papers of the Francisco J. Sánchez-Rivera lab, the Britt Adamson lab, and Greg Findlay
Excited to share our work in the Britt Adamson lab using prime editing for multiplexed dropout screens! We built a platform that can reach high-efficiency editing and tested 240,000 epegRNAs for phenotypes. We saw phenotypes we expected and a few we didn't - check here for details!

What started out as a simple 'let's try this in embryos' turned into a full fledged paper! Many many thanks to co-first author Ryan McNulty, our respective PIs Eszter Posfai and Britt Adamson and all authors.
