CRISPRoff (v1.2beta): off-targeting assessment of Cas9 gRNAs

This webserver is dedicated to the assessment of guide RNAs for CRISPR-spCas9 applications. Using the webserver, you can compute the specificity of gRNAs with NGG PAM sequences. You will also obtain the relative likelyhood of cleavage by CRISPR-Cas9 on off-target sites compared to the likelyhood of cleavage at the on-target site. Off-targets with up to 6 mis-matches for the gRNA and NGG, NGA and NAG PAM sequences are considered by the webserver.

You should also assess the on-target effeciency of any gRNA before using it in experiments. You can do that with the CRISPRon webserver.

Job options

Fill in a genome assembly and a query sequence and press submit below.


Load examples (different styles):  gRNA (single, multiple)  design gRNAs for target sequence (single, multiple)


On and off-targets mapping to the entered region will be ignored. Use this if the sequence of your target differs from the genomic reference.
