CRISPR guide RNA libraries have been iteratively improved to provide increasingly efficient reagents, although their large size is a barrier for many applications. We design an optimised minimal genome-wide human CRISPR-Cas9 library (MinLibCas9) by mining existing large-scale gene loss-of-function datasets, resulting in a greater than 42% reduction in size compared…

Developing an epigenetic screening platform in human T cells Staphylococcus aureus Cas9 (SaCas9) has been extensively used for genome editing in vivo as its compact size (3,159 bp) relative to the conventional Streptococcus pyogenes Cas9 (SpCas9) enables packaging into adeno-associated virus26,27,28. However, SaCas9 has not been widely used for targeted gene…

From RNA interference (RNAi) to CRISPR, there are several methods that researchers can use to manipulate gene function, each with its own strengths and weaknesses. Orthogonal validation – the synergistic use of different methods – makes genetic perturbation studies more robust. Utilizing complementary methods, including RNAi and CRISPR-knockout, -interference and…

Abstract The success of CRISPR-mediated gene perturbation studies is highly dependent on the quality of gRNAs, and several tools have been developed to enable optimal gRNA design. However, these tools are not all adaptable to the latest CRISPR modalities or nucleases, nor do they offer comprehensive annotation methods for advanced…
