CRISPR-Cas9 Screening Libraries |
CRISPR screening allows you to perform focused loss-of-function analyses on relevant gene sets or custom collections, or unbiased genome-wide CRISPR screens with confidence.
Expand your CRISPR screening capabilities with lentiviral gRNA libraries. Lentiviral libraries make it easy to perform CRISPR gene edits for hundreds of genes at once. Award-winning Invitrogen LentiArray and LentiPool CRISPR libraries employ advanced gRNA designs for maximum knockout efficiency without sacrificing specificity.
Delivered in arrayed plate format with one gene target (and up to four gRNAs) per well. Compatible with high-throughput screening platforms.
Collections of gRNA lentiviruses pooled together in a single tube. Empower CRISPR-Cas9 screening without the need for high-throughput infrastructure.
CRISPR libraries are constructed using our proprietary gRNA design algorithm, which incorporates the latest research and our extensive in-house experience. The gRNA designs are selected for maximum knockout efficiency without compromising specificity. For each gene target, we include up to four high-quality gRNAs to help ensure that the lentiviral library will provide high-efficiency knockout of target genes across a wide array of cell types.
LentiArray CRISPR libraries are delivered in an arrayed format in 96-well plates, compatible with high-throughput screening platforms. These lentiviral libraries provide a flexible system that does not impose limitations on your functional genomics assay design or research goals.
LentiPool CRISPR Libraries empower CRISPR-Cas9 screening without the need for high-throughput infrastructure. These high-quality pooled lentiviral libraries cover the same gene targets as our LentiArray libraries and are delivered as ready-to-use high-titer (>1 x 108 TU/mL) lentivirus particles for a gene knockout screen with maximum impact.
The LentiPool CRISPR libraries include lentiviruses that encode up to four gRNAs for each targeted gene, pooled together in one tube. All analysis can be performed using next-generation sequencing (NGS). Our LentiPool libraries are quality controlled by NGS to confirm gRNA and gene representation.

Figure 2.Workflow for lentiviral pooled screening. A Cas9-expressing stable cell line is generated with LentiArray Lentiviral Cas9 Nuclease using selection for blasticidin resistance. These Cas9-expressing cells are then transduced with the LentiPool sgRNA library at the appropriate MOI and undergo selection for puromycin resistance. The transduced population then undergoes selective pressure or treatment like a drug or chemical perturbant. Genomic DNA is isolated and the sgRNA inserts are amplified by PCR. Finally, the amplicons then are sequenced to determine which genes were enriched/depleted in response to the treatment.
High-quality controls play an integral role in the successful development and performance of high-throughput screens. Don't forget to order controls to help you optimize delivery conditions, maximize editing efficiency, and establish hit selection criteria.
Specific to LentiArray CRISPR libraries, we offer a set of negative or positive delivery control options that can come with or without a GFP-expressing construct. The GFP marker can provide a visual readout to aid in the rapid optimization of viral delivery conditions.
These CRISPR libraries include up to four gRNAs per gene target. This includes one gene per well with 100 μL (2 x 50 μL) of ready-to-use lentiviral particles per gene target and an average titer of 1 x 108 TU/mL.
Both predefined and custom CRISPR libraries are available, ranging from focused gene sets to whole-genome libraries. Our druggable genome CRISPR library is designed for identifying potential therapeutic targets involved in the development and progression of diseases.
The gene targets in each CRISPR library were selected using the most up-to-date genome databases, including the NCBI RefSeq database, and were cross-referenced to the Gene Ontology Consortium (GO) database and/or the HUGO Gene Nomenclature Committee (HGNC). The gRNA designs for each target were then created using a proprietary design algorithm developed by the scientists at Thermo Fisher Scientific.
