Limited agreement of independent RNAi screens for virus-required host genes owes more to false-negative than false-positive factors.
Systematic, genome-wide RNA interference (RNAi) analysis is a powerful approach to identify gene functions that support or modulate selected biological processes. An emerging challenge shared with some other genome-wide approaches is that independent RNAi studies often show limited agreement in thei...
