Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method for analyzing nucleic acid sequences. The method can comprise determining, by a computer system, a base trace by trimming a Sanger sequencing trace of a plurality of nucleic acid molecules from a sample based on a first target sequence and a second target sequence. Each of the first and second target sequences can be in the plurality of nucleic acid molecules or can be in the complement of sequence of the plurality of nucleic acid molecules.

Abstract: Methods and systems for preparing clonal cell populations are described. In some instances the disclosed methods comprise: a) identifying and selecting a cell based on its position on a surface or in a container, where the selection is not based on whether the cell comprises an exogenous label or an expressed reporter; b) photoablating all non-selected cells on the surface or in the container; and c) growing a clonal population of the selected cell.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method for designing a set of guide RNAs for hybridizing a genomic region of interest. The present disclosure further provides methods of editing at least one genomic region of interest with at least one set of guide RNAs.

Abstract: Provided herein are polynucleotides comprising sequence configured to bind to a CRISPR effector protein. Modulation of one or more modifications of the polynucleotides can be used to tune the activity of CRISPR effector proteins complexed with the polynucleotides.

Abstract: Provided herein are polynucleotides and CRISPR effector proteins configured to be covalently bound together in a CRISPR complex. The polynucleotides can be further modified to modulate the activity of the CRISPR complex. Modification of the polynucleotide and CRISPR effector protein can be used to improve the efficacy of target binding and/or cleavage.

Abstract: Described herein are methods for generating and using variant panels of clonally expanded cells containing a plurality of introduced genetic variants. These clonally expanded cells can be partitioned such that each individual partition contains a single genetic variant, allowing for the assessment of the outcome of each variant without the confounding effect of background genetic variation. Further, panels of such variants can be used to evaluate nucleic acid repair strategies. Genetic variation can be introduced through the use of genome editing tools, such as CRISPR/Cas.
