CRISPOR: intuitive guide selection for CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing experiments and screens

CRISPOR. org is a web tool for genome editing experiments with the CRISPR-Cas9 system. It finds guide RNAs in an input sequence and ranks them according to different scores that evaluate potential off-targets in the genome of interest and predict ontarget activity. The list of genomes is continuously expanded, with more 150 genomes added in the last two years. CRISPOR tries to provide a comprehensive solution from selection, cloning and expression of guide RNA as well as providing primers needed for testing guide activity and potential off-targets. Recent developments include batch design for genome-wide CRISPR and saturation screens, creating custom oligonucleotides for guide cloning and the design of next generation sequencing primers to test for off-target mutations. CRISPOR is available from http://crispor.org, including the full source code of the website and a stand-alone, command-line version.
