In melanoma, CRISPR screens have looked for genes whose loss confers resistance to the BRAF inhibitor vemurafenib, identifying targets such as NF1, whose loss results in activation of NRAS, a recognized vemurafenib resistance mechanism (Nazarian et al., 2010; Nissan et al., 2014; Shalem et al., 2014). The gene discussed is BRAF; the disease is melanoma.
