Genome-wide and high-density CRISPR-Cas9 screens identify point mutations in PARP1 causing PARP inhibitor resistance

The mechanisms of PARP inhibitor (PARPi) resistance are poorly understood. Here the authors employ a CRISPR mutagenesis approach to identify PARP1 mutants causing PARPi resistance and find that PARP1 mutations are tolerated in BRCA1 mutated cells, suggesting alternative resistance mechanisms.
