Genome-wide CRISPR interference screen identifies long non-coding RNA loci required for differentiation and pluripotency.

Although many long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) exhibit lineage-specific expression, the vast majority remain functionally uncharacterized in the context of development. Here, we report the first described human embryonic stem cell (hESC) lines to repress (CRISPRi) or activate (CRISPRa) transcription d...
