Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: CRISPR/Cas9-mediated transcriptional interference (CRISPRi) enables programmable gene knock-down, yielding loss-of-function phenotypes for nearly any gene. Effective, inducible CRISPRi has been demonstrated in budding yeast, and genome-scale guide libraries enable systematic, genome-wide genetic analysis. RESULTS: We present a comprehensive yeast CRISPRi library, based on empirical design rules,...
