Title Comparative landscape of genetic dependencies in human and chimpanzee stem cells
Organisms Pan troglodytes; Homo sapiens
Experiment type Expression profiling by high throughput sequencing
Summary Comparative studies of great apes provide a window into our evolutionary past, but the extent and identity of cellular differences that emerged during hominin evolution remain largely unexplored.
We established a comparative loss-of-function approach to evaluate whether changes in human cells alter requirements for essential genes.
By performing genome-wide CRISPR interference screens in human and chimpanzee pluripotent stem cells, we identified 75 genes with species-specific effects on cellular proliferation.
These genes comprised coherent processes, including cell cycle progression and lysosomal signaling, which we determined to be human-derived by comparison with orangutan cells.
Human-specific robustness to CDK2 and CCNE1 depletion persisted in neural progenitor cells and cerebral organoids, supporting the G1-phase length hypothesis as a potential evolutionary mechanism in human brain expansion.
 
Overall design This GEO submission contains comparative gene expression profiling of the six human and six chimpanzee CRISPRi engineered cell lines used in this study.
