sgRNA Sequence Motifs Blocking Efficient CRISPR/Cas9-Mediated Gene Editing

Summary: Cas9 nucleases can be programmed with single guide RNAs (sgRNAs) to mediate gene editing. High CRISPR/Cas9-mediated gene knockout efficiencies are essential for genetic screens and critically depend on the properties of the sgRNAs used. The specificity of an sgRNA is defined by its targetin...
