crisprScore
Provides R wrappers of several on-target and off-target scoring methods for CRISPR guide RNAs (gRNAs). The following nucleases are supported: SpCas9, AsCas12a, enAsCas12a, and RfxCas13d (CasRx). The available on-target cutting efficiency scoring methods are RuleSet1, RuleSet3, DeepHF, enPAM+GB, and CRISPRscan. Both the CFD and MIT scoring methods are available for off-target specificity prediction. The package also provides a Lindel-derived score to predict the probability of a gRNA to produce indels inducing a frameshift for the Cas9 nuclease. Note that DeepHF and enPAM+GB are not available on Windows machines.

Provides functions for counting reads from high-throughput sequencing screen data (e.g., CRISPR, shRNA) to quantify barcode abundance. Currently supports single barcodes in single- or paired-end data, and combinatorial barcodes in paired-end data.
Protein domains is one of the most import annoation of proteins we have with the Pfam database/tool being (by far) the most used tool. This R package enables the user to read the pfam prediction from both webserver and stand-alone runs into R. We have recently shown most human protein domains exist as multiple distinct variants termed domain isotypes. Different domain isotypes are used in a cell, tissue, and disease-specific manner. Accordingly, we find that domain isotypes, compared to each other, modulate, or abolish the functionality of a protein domain. This R package enables the identification and classification of such domain isotypes from Pfam data.
Provides a user-friendly interface to map on-targets and off-targets of CRISPR gRNA spacer sequences using bwa. The alignment is fast, and can be performed using either commonly-used or custom CRISPR nucleases. The alignment can work with any reference or custom genomes. Currently not supported on Windows machines.
This package aims to integrate GWAS-derived SNPs and coexpression networks to mine candidate genes associated with a particular phenotype. For that, users must define a set of guide genes, which are known genes involved in the studied phenotype. Additionally, the mined candidates can be given a score that favor candidates that are hubs and/or transcription factors. The scores can then be used to rank and select the top n most promising genes for downstream experiments.
