Structure-optimized sgRNA selection with PlatinumCRISPr for efficient Cas9 generation of knock-outs
2022-12-15
Abstract excerpt
A single guide RNA (sgRNA) directs Cas9 nuclease for gene-specific scission of double-stranded DNA. High Cas9 activity is essential for efficient gene editing to generate gene deletions and gene replacements by homologous recombination. However, cleavage efficiency is below 50% for more than half of randomly selected sgRNA sequences in human cell culture screens or model organisms. We used in vitro assays to deter...
