Summary Cell atlas projects have nominated recurrent transcriptional states as drivers of biological processes and disease, but their origins, regulation, and properties remain unclear. To enable complementary functional studies, we developed a scalable approach for recapitulating cell states in vitro using CRISPR activation (CRISPRa) Perturb-seq. Aided by a novel multiplexing method, we activated 1,836 transcription factors in two cell types. Measuring 21,958 perturbations showed that CRISPRa activated targets within physiological ranges, that epigenetic features predicted activatable…
