High-throughput functional genomics using CRISPR-Cas9
Open accessAbstract
Forward genetic screens are powerful tools for the discovery and functional annotation of genetic elements. Recently, the RNA-guided CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat)-associated Cas9 nuclease has been combined with genome-scale guide RNA libraries for unbiased, phenotypic screening. In this Review, we describe recent advances using Cas9 for genome-scale screens, including knockout approaches that inactivate genomic loci and strategies that modulate transcriptional activity. We discuss practical aspects of screen design, provide comparisons with RNA interference (RNAi) screening, and outline future applications and challenges.

In the citing paper
“The most commonly used CRISPR Type II system consists of a gRNA and an endonuclease, the CRISPR-associated (Cas) nuclease, Cas9, which cleaves the targeted chromosomal DNA in a site-specific manner triggering endogenous DNA repair systems resulting in genome modification (for an in-depth review, see Doudna and Charpentier 2014; Kim and Kim 2014; Shalem, Sanjana and Zhang 2015).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
