Summary (written by the submitters)
Background/Objectives: The treatment of multiple myeloma (MM) remains a challenge as almost all patients will eventually relapse. Proteasome inhibitors are a cornerstone in the management of MM. Unfortunately, validated biomarkers predict-ing drug response are largely missing. Therefore, we aimed to identify genes associated with drug resistance or sensitization to proteasome inhibitors.

Methods: We per-formed genome-wide CRISPR-Cas9 knockout (KO) screens in human KMS-28-BM my-eloma cells to identify genetic determinants associated with resistance or sensitization to proteasome inhibitors. Results: We show that KO of KLF13 and PSMC4 induces drug resistance, while NUDCD2, OSER1 and HERC1 KO cause drug sensitization. Sub-sequently, we focused on top sensitization hit, NUDCD2, which acts as a co-chaperone of Hsp90 to regulate the LIS1/dynein complex. RNA sequencing showed downregula-tion of genes involved in the ERAD pathway and in ER-associated ubiqui-tin-dependent protein catabolic processes in both untreated and carfilzomib-treated NUDCD2 KO cells, suggesting that NUDCD2 depletion alters protein degradation. Furthermore, bortezomib-treated NUDCD2 KO cells showed a decreased expression of genes that have a function in oxidative phosphorylation and the mitochondrial mem-brane, such as Carnitine Palmitoyltransferase 1A (CPT1A). CPT1A catalyzes the up-take of long chain fatty acids into mitochondria. Mitochondrial lipid metabolism has recently been reported as a possible therapeutic target for MM drug sensitivity. Con-clusions: These results contribute to the search of therapeutic targets that can sensitize MM patients to proteasome inhibitors.

Direct links to NCBI and ENA, no account and no request form. Pick by what you want to do: take the small processed table to look, the supplementary files to re-analyse, or the original raw data to start over.

1 · Just have a look

Processed table

The series matrix: one table of values per sample as the submitters processed it. The smallest download, and it opens in Excel or R. Start here to see what the data look like.

2 · Re-analyse it

Supplementary files

The count tables and other files the authors uploaded. Take only the samples you need, or the whole study as GSE301632_RAW.tar (it can run to tens of gigabytes).

3 · Start from the raw reads

Raw sequencing reads

The original FASTQ files, straight from the sequencer, held at ENA. Large, and you align them yourself, so only choose this if you need to re-process the study from scratch.

What the files usually look like: For RNA-seq the counts are usually a table among the supplementary files (look for 'counts', 'expression', 'FPKM' or 'TPM' in the file name). The series matrix of a sequencing study is sometimes nearly empty.

Also filed as BioProject PRJNA1285847 and SRA study SRP598098. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Supports a between-group comparison across 24 samples.

How we read this: 9 replicated groups read from 27 sample titles; they account for 24 of them. These groups are guessed from the sample names, not taken from the paper, so check them against the sample list below before relying on them.
