An improved CRISPR-LICHT screen of 120 Tdark genes illuminates new biologically relevant SOX2 targets in human brain organoids

SOX2 is a transcription factor and central regulator of neural progenitor identity, yet the downstream molecular networks through which it supports human brain development remain incompletely characterized. Here, we applied CRISPR-lineage tracing at cellular resolution in heterogeneous tissue (CRISPR-LICHT) to human cerebral organoids to functionally interrogate SOX2-dependent regulatory…
