Article Title: | GuideScan software for improved single and paired CRISPR guide RNA design |
Abstract: | We present GuideScan software for the design of CRISPR guide RNA libraries that can be used to edit coding and noncoding genomic regions. GuideScan produces high-density sets of guide RNAs (gRNAs) for single- A nd paired-gRNA genome-wide screens. We also show that the trie data structure of GuideScan enables the design of gRNAs that are more specific than those designed by existing tools. © 2017 Nature America, Inc., part of Springer Nature.
