A CRISPRi screen in E. coli reveals sequence-specific toxicity of dCas9
CRISPR interference (CRISPRi) is a method for targeted silencing of transcription that requires the coexpression of protein dCas9 and a customized guide RNA. Here, Cui et al. show that certain guide RNAs induce toxicity in E. coli, and provide design rules to minimize off-target effects.
