Gel electrophoresis was performed using 2% agarose to separate cleaved regions. ImageJ was used to quantify the mutation frequencies using the following equation: mutation frequency (%) = 100 × (1 - [1 - fraction cleaved]1/2), where the fraction cleaved was the total relative density of the cleavage bands divided by the sum of the relative density of cleavage and uncut bands. Potential off-target sites were selected from CRISPOR 24 (link) and validated using a T7E1 assay.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
