Large-Scale Single Guide RNA Library Construction and Use for CRISPR-Cas9-Based Genetic Screens

The ability to systematically disrupt genes serves as a powerful tool for understanding their function. The programmable CRISPR-Cas9 system enables efficient targeting of large numbers of genes through the use of single guide RNA (sgRNA) libraries. In cultured mammalian cells, collections of knockou...
