Knight S, McCurdy S, Rhead B, Coignet M, Park D, Roberts G, et al.
BMJ Open . 2022 Oct; 12(10):e049657. PMID: 36223959
Objectives: The enormous toll of the COVID-19 pandemic has heightened the urgency of collecting and analysing population-scale datasets in real time to monitor and better understand the evolving pandemic. The...

Roberts G, Partha R, Rhead B, Knight S, Park D, Coignet M, et al.
Nat Genet . 2022 Apr; 54(4):374-381. PMID: 35410379
Multiple COVID-19 genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have identified reproducible genetic associations indicating that there is a genetic component to susceptibility and severity risk. To complement these studies, we collected deep...

Horowitz J, Kosmicki J, Damask A, Sharma D, Roberts G, Justice A, et al.
Nat Genet . 2022 Mar; 54(4):382-392. PMID: 35241825
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) enters human host cells via angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) and causes coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Here, through a genome-wide association study, we identify...

Knight S, Tjian R, Doudna J
Angew Chem Int Ed Engl . 2017 Oct; 57(16):4329-4337. PMID: 29080263
The discovery of the CRISPR-Cas9 endonuclease has enabled facile genome editing in living cells and organisms. Catalytically inactive Cas9 (dCas9) retains the ability to bind DNA in an RNA-guided fashion,...

East-Seletsky A, OConnell M, Knight S, Burstein D, Cate J, Tjian R, et al.
Nature . 2016 Sep; 538(7624):270-273. PMID: 27669025
Bacterial adaptive immune systems use CRISPRs (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats) and CRISPR-associated (Cas) proteins for RNA-guided nucleic acid cleavage. Although most prokaryotic adaptive immune systems generally target DNA...

Knight S, Xie L, Deng W, Guglielmi B, Witkowsky L, Bosanac L, et al.
Science . 2015 Nov; 350(6262):823-6. PMID: 26564855
The RNA-guided CRISPR-associated protein Cas9 is used for genome editing, transcriptional modulation, and live-cell imaging. Cas9-guide RNA complexes recognize and cleave double-stranded DNA sequences on the basis of 20-nucleotide RNA-DNA...

J Am Chem Soc . 2010 Aug; 132(33):11649-57. PMID: 20672812
We report the results of a comprehensive investigation of the recently discovered stereoselective and controlled polymerization of racemic lactide (D,L-LA) using an initiator prepared in situ from indium(III) chloride (InCl(3)),...
