Highly efficient Cas9-mediated transcriptional programming. Nat Methods. 2015 Apr;12(4):326-8. PMID: 25730490.
From the abstract: "... modest levels of gene activation have limited potential applications. We describe an improved transcriptional regulator obtained through the rational design of a tripartite activator, VP64-p65-Rta (VPR), fused to nuclease-null Cas9. ..."
Drosophila S2R+ cultured cells are among the systems in which this approach was successfully tested. See Results and Supplementary Fig. 9.
