CRISPRpred(SEQ): a sequence-based method for sgRNA on target activity prediction using traditional machine learning.

BMC bioinformatics
BACKGROUND: The latest works on CRISPR genome editing tools mainly employs deep learning techniques. However, deep learning models lack explainability and they are harder to reproduce. We were motivated to build an accurate genome editing tool using ...

Deep learning improves the ability of sgRNA off-target propensity prediction.

BMC bioinformatics
BACKGROUND: CRISPR/Cas9 system, as the third-generation genome editing technology, has been widely applied in target gene repair and gene expression regulation. Selection of appropriate sgRNA can improve the on-target knockout efficacy of CRISPR/Cas9...

SpCas9 activity prediction by DeepSpCas9, a deep learning-based model with high generalization performance.

Science advances
We evaluated SpCas9 activities at 12,832 target sequences using a high-throughput approach based on a human cell library containing single-guide RNA-encoding and target sequence pairs. Deep learning-based training on this large dataset of SpCas9-indu...

Prediction of sgRNA on-target activity in bacteria by deep learning.

BMC bioinformatics
BACKGROUND: One of the main challenges for the CRISPR-Cas9 system is selecting optimal single-guide RNAs (sgRNAs). Recently, deep learning has enhanced sgRNA prediction in eukaryotes. However, the prokaryotic chromatin structure is different from euk...

An overview and metanalysis of machine and deep learning-based CRISPR gRNA design tools.

RNA biology
The CRISPR-Cas9 system has become the most promising and versatile tool for genetic manipulation applications. Albeit the technology has been broadly adopted by both academic and pharmaceutic societies, the activity (on-target) and specificity (off-t...

Optimized CRISPR guide RNA design for two high-fidelity Cas9 variants by deep learning.

Nature communications
Highly specific Cas9 nucleases derived from SpCas9 are valuable tools for genome editing, but their wide applications are hampered by a lack of knowledge governing guide RNA (gRNA) activity. Here, we perform a genome-scale screen to measure gRNA acti...

Predicting CRISPR/Cas9-Induced Mutations for Precise Genome Editing.

Trends in biotechnology
SpCas9 creates blunt end cuts in the genome and generates random and unpredictable mutations through error-prone repair systems. However, a growing body of recent evidence points instead to Cas9-induced staggered end generation, nonrandomness of muta...

Unlocking HDR-mediated nucleotide editing by identifying high-efficiency target sites using machine learning.

Scientific reports
Editing individual nucleotides is a crucial component for validating genomic disease association. It is currently hampered by CRISPR-Cas-mediated "base editing" being limited to certain nucleotide changes, and only achievable within a small window ar...

Deep learning image recognition enables efficient genome editing in zebrafish by automated injections.

PloS one
One of the most popular techniques in zebrafish research is microinjection. This is a rapid and efficient way to genetically manipulate early developing embryos, and to introduce microbes, chemical compounds, nanoparticles or tracers at larval stages...

Prediction of CRISPR sgRNA Activity Using a Deep Convolutional Neural Network.

Journal of chemical information and modeling
The CRISPR-Cas9 system derived from adaptive immunity in bacteria and archaea has been developed into a powerful tool for genome engineering with wide-ranging applications. Optimizing single-guide RNA (sgRNA) design to improve efficiency of target cl...
