CRISPR Analysis

Introduction to CRISPR Analysis

CRISPR technology revolutionizes functional genomics, allowing high-throughput gene function exploration via precise genome editing. Our CRISPR analysis pipeline leverages industry-leading tools like MAGeCK to provide robust insights into gene knockouts, essentiality screens, and targeted mutagenesis experiments.

What is CRISPR Analysis?

CRISPR-Cas9 enables systematic gene perturbation, offering valuable insights into gene functions. When combined with sequencing, CRISPR screens identify genes involved in processes like proliferation, differentiation, and therapeutic responses. CRISPR analysis quantifies guide RNA (gRNA) representation and interprets the biological impact of gene perturbations.

Our CRISPR Analysis Workflow

We use a data-driven approach to analyze CRISPR screening data effectively. Key steps include:

  1. gRNA Quantification with MAGeCK Count:
    • Map sequencing reads to reference libraries to identify gRNA sequences.
    • Quantify gRNA abundance across experimental conditions.
    • Generate high-quality count data for downstream analysis.
  2. Differential Analysis with MAGeCK Test:
    • Compare gRNA abundance between treatment and control groups to identify enriched or depleted gRNAs.
    • Identify candidate genes crucial for specific biological processes or phenotypes.
    • Apply statistical models to reduce noise and enhance result reliability.
  3. Quality Control and Data Visualization:
    • Conduct quality checks for data integrity and reproducibility.
    • Visualize results using various plots, including boxplots, violin plots, and PCA.

Applications of CRISPR Analysis

CRISPR analysis is used in:

  • Gene Essentiality Screens: Identifying genes vital for cell survival or proliferation.
  • Drug Target Identification: Discovering genes related to treatment resistance or sensitivity.
  • Functional Genomics: Understanding gene functions and their roles in complex traits.
  • Disease Mechanisms: Investigating genetic drivers of diseases and therapeutic targets.
