Evaluation and Design of Genome-wide CRISPR/Cas9 Knockout Screens
2017-03-16
Abstract excerpt
The adaptation of CRISPR/Cas9 technology to mammalian cell lines is transforming the study of human functional genomics. Pooled libraries of CRISPR guide RNAs (gRNAs), targeting human protein-coding genes and encoded in viral vectors, have been used to systematically create gene knockouts in a variety of human cancer and immortalized cell lines, in an effort to identify whether these knockouts cause cellular fitne...
