摘要：Chemogenomic profiling is a powerful and unbiased approach to elucidate pharmacological targets and the mechanism of bioactive compounds. Until recently, genome-wide, high-resolution experiments of this nature have been limited to fungal systems due to lack of mammalian genome-wide deletion collections. With the example of a novel nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT) inhibitor, we demonstrate that the CRISPR/Cas9 system enables the generation of transient homo- and heterozygous deletion libraries and allows for the identification of efficacy targets and pathways mediating hypersensitivity and resistance relevant to the compound mechanism of action.
