CRISPR Library Types and Names
CRISPR Library Types and Methodologies
| Name | Methodology |
| CRISPRn | Knockout: Generation of knockout cells or animals with loss-function mutations within the targeted genes. |
| CRISPRa | Activation: Use of CRISPR with a modified Cas enzyme fused to protein domains that turn gene expression on, thereby activating gene expression. |
| CRISPRi | Inhibition: Use of CRISPR with a modified Cas enzyme fused to protein domains that turn gene expression off, thereby repressing or inhibiting gene expression. |
| CRISPRgbc | Barcode: Barcoded libraries include large numbers of unique barcodes for marking individual cells. The barcodes are passed down to daughter cells and are useful for lineage tracing or for studying the dynamics of heterogeneous tumors. |
