Abstract:CRISPR/Cas9 system is widely used in a broad range of gene-editing applications. While the CRISPR editing technique is quite accurate in the target region, there may be many unplanned offtarget sites (OTS). Consequently, a plethora of highthroughput experimental assays have been developed to measure OTS in a genome-wide manner. Based on these experimental data, computational methods have been developed to predict OTS given a guide RNA and a reference genome. However, these methods are highly inaccurate when co… Show more
