Utilizing Large Functional and Population Genomics Resources for CRISPR/Cas Perturbation Experiment Design

Methods Mol Biol. 2023;2637:63-73. doi: 10.1007/978-1-0716-3016-7_5.

ABSTRACT

Genome sequencing technologies have rapidly evolved in the past decades, enabling us to interpret the human genome through multiple perspectives, ranging from cross-species comparisons, naturally occurring variation in health and disease state to regulatory mechanisms.Although such perspectives are all informative to narrow down the list of genes or variants for perturbation experiments based on specific biological aims, utilizing multiple sources of information is often challenging in practice.In this chapter, we provide an overview of major large-scale functional and population genomics resources, followed by a practical example of selecting target variants for genetic perturbation experiments involving genome engineering techniques such as CRISPR/Cas.
