Efficient prioritization of CRISPR screen hits by accounting for targeting efficiency of guide RNA

Abstract Background CRISPR-based screens are revolutionizing drug discovery as tools to identify genes whose ablation induces a phenotype of interest. For instance, CRISPR-Cas9 screening has been successfully used to identify novel therapeutic targets in cancer where disruption of genes leads to dec...
