Researchers uncover gene driving blood cancer drug resistance

MELBOURNE, Sept. 19 (Xinhua) -- Researchers in Australia have uncovered a previously unknown gene that helps lymphoma cells resist a widely used blood cancer drug, along with several genes that accelerate lymphoma growth. Researchers used a new CRISPR activation tool called Partita with a mouse model of aggressive lymphoma. Partita is a "library" that allows every gene in the mouse genome to be switched on indiv
