Open AccessCasKAS: direct profiling of genome-wide dCas9 and Cas9 specificity using ssDNA map**
Detecting and mitigating off-target activity is critical to the practical application of CRISPR-mediated genome and epigenome editing. While numerous methods have been developed to map Cas9 binding specificity...

Open AccessTranscription-dependent domain-scale three-dimensional genome organization in the dinoflagellate Breviolum minutum
Dinoflagellate chromosomes represent a unique evolutionary experiment, as they exist in a permanently condensed, liquid crystalline state; are not packaged by histones; and contain genes organized into tandem ...

Open AccessMitigation of off-target toxicity in CRISPR-Cas9 screens for essential non-coding elements
Pooled CRISPR-Cas9 screens are a powerful method for functionally characterizing regulatory elements in the non-coding genome, but off-target effects in these experiments have not been systematically evaluated...
