Title: BRD2 inhibition blocks SARS-CoV-2 infection in vitro by reducing transcription of the host cell receptor ACE2

Screen Details:

Notes:
  • A focused CRISPRi screen targeting the druggable genome (2,300 genes) was performed to identify factors controlling SARS-CoV-2 Spike-RBD binding to human cells. Genes were knocked down by CRISPRi and those that decreased (negative score) or increased (positive score) Spike-RBD binding were identified, including ACE2 and regulators of ACE2.
