Efficient Library Preparation for CRISPR Pooled Single-Guide RNAs Screens
- Technology Application
- This new technology is platform and library agnostic, and provides a dramatic improvement for all such approaches by simplifying and improving library preparation, enabling larger scale studies, higher reproducibility, and higher sensitivity in identifying candidates for further study.
- Detailed Technology Description
- Researchers from UC San Diego have developed a method to enable the generation of high-throughput sequencing libraries from DNA isolated from a population of cells containing a pooled library of gene targeting constructs.
