Abstract excerpt
The CRISPR-Cas9 system is a powerful tool for studying gene functions and holds potential for disease treatment. However, precise genome editing requires thorough assessments to minimize unintended on- and off-target effects. Here, we report an unexpected 283-kb deletion on Chromosome 10 (10q23.31) in chronic myelogenous leukemia-derived HAP1 cells, which are frequently used in CRISPR screens. The deleted region...
