| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
It has been demonstrated that solid tumors are composed of various genomic mutated cells by genomic sequencing and analysis of diversity. In this program, we tried to identify critical mutations to generate solid tumors by random mutagenesis using CRISPR/Cas9 library. We used library which randomly made deletions at promoter regions of almost all reported human genes. We infected CRISPR/Cas9 library to human cancer cell lines to generate randomly mutated cell pool. Diversity of library extracted cell line were reduced within several days culture after introduction of library compared to that of original library. This observation suggest that in introduction of library make some clones die or proliferate less, as these clones have disadvantage to survival in vitro compared to other clones.
