ENCoRE: an efficient software for CRISPR screens identifies new players in extrinsic apoptosis

Abstract: BackgroundAs CRISPR/Cas9 mediated screens with pooled guide libraries in somatic cells become increasingly established, an unmet need for rapid and accurate companion informatics tools has emerged. We have developed a lightweight and efficient software to easily manipulate large raw next generation sequencing datasets derived from such screens into informative relational context with graphical support. The advantages of the software entitled ENCoRE (Easy NGS-to-Gene CRISPR REsults) include a simple graphical w… Show more

“…Requirements are different for each tool; while STARS and BAGEL require as input file the read count table, MAGeCK and ENCoRE accept raw reads and perform median normalization on read counts of the different samples to adjust for the effect of library sizes and read count distributions. Finally, ENCoRE provides a graphical interface, enabling non-bioinformaticians to perform a complete analysis starting from raw sequencing data (Trumbach et al, 2017). Of these methods, MAGeCK would appear to be the most widely used.…”

“…To extend the functions, MAGeCK-RRA ( 147 ) was further updated to scMAGeCK ( 148 ) for single-cell CRISPR screening (a novel technique combining pooled CRISPR screening with single-cell RNA-seq, which enables the identification of gRNAs at single-cell resolution from sequencing by modifying the lentiviral vector) and MAGeCKFlute ( 137 ) with optional ranking algorithm (maximum likelihood estimation) ( 149 ), gRNA outlier removal by network essentiality scoring tool ( 150 ), and various accessory functions including upstream quality control and downstream visualization. For some novices without programming expertise, command-line programs are hard to tame and the graphical workflow, ENCoRE ( 141 ), seems more user-friendly, whereas the rough processing of gene ranking may induce unreliable results. Likewise, a universal analyzer, HiTSelect ( 138 ), is designed for both RNAi and CRISPR screens, whereas Poisson distribution used to fit the active gRNA abundance is not applicable because the mean and variance of gRNA count are always not equal.…”

“…Meanwhile, there are still positions for other tools when facing the cases they are adept at. ScreenBEAM ( 139 ) for low-quality data and ENCoRE ( 141 ) for novice users are two representative examples.…”
