Comparison of non-specific transcriptional effects of CRISPRi effector proteins by RNA-seq


ABSTRACT: CRISPR interference (CRISPRi) genetic screens use programmable repression of gene expression to systematically explore questions in cell biology and genetics. However, wider adoption of CRISPRi screening has been constrained by the large size of single guide RNA (sgRNA) libraries and lack of consensus on the choice of CRISPRi effector proteins. Here, we address these challenges to present next-generation CRISPRi sgRNA libraries and effectors. First, we combine empiric sgRNA selection with a dual sgRNA library design to generate an ultra-compact, highly active CRISPRi sgRNA library. Next, we rigorously compare CRISPRi effectors to show that the recently published Zim3-dCas9 provides an optimal balance between strong on-target knockdown and minimal nonspecific effects on cell growth or the transcriptome. Finally, we engineer a suite of cell lines which stably express Zim3-dCas9 and demonstrate robust on-target knockdown across these cell lines. Our results and publicly available reagents establish best practices for CRISPRi genetic screening.
