Recognition of CRISPR/Cas9 off-target sites through ensemble learning of uneven mismatch distributions

Abstract: Motivation CRISPR/Cas9 is driving a broad range of innovative applications from basic biology to biotechnology and medicine. One of its current issues is the effect of off-target editing that should be critically resolved and should be completely avoided in the ideal use of this system. Results We developed an ensemble learning method to detect the off-target sites of a single guide RNA (sgRNA) from its thousands of genome-wi… Show more

“…As well as interfering with chromosome stability, off‐target effects may cause loss of functional‐gene activity that causes diverse physiological or signaling abnormalities ( Figure ). It is therefore vital to design an optimum sgRNA for achieving high on‐targeting with no or little possibility for off‐target effects …”

“…This method enhances the efficiency of off‐target site prediction as compared to other computational methods, and can identify more off‐target sites consist with bona fide detections through high‐throughput methods. According to two case studies, it is efficient in the selection of optimal sgRNAs for treatment of certain genetic disorders …”

“…Off-target binding seems inevitable in large genomes; however, different methods exist to improve CRISPR-Cas9 specificity. Novel machine learning algorithms enable the efficient design of sgRNAs, based on experimentally validated examples [104][105][106]. Limiting the amount of both Cas9 and sgRNA could minimize off-target modifications, as higher concentrations of these increase the risk of binding to sites containing mismatches [107,108].…”

“…With the definition, 957 unique reliable off-targets and 5,435 ''detected'' off-targets were obtained from in vitro and cellbased assays, from which we deleted sgRNA 'TCATCCTC-CTGACAATCGATAGG' on gene CCR5_9 with its off-target site, as there is only 1 sample for this sgRNA. Then we downloaded off-targets obtained by PCR assays [18] and got 215 more samples. We integrated the reliable off-targets got above without repetition to construct the final positive dataset.…”

“…However, in recent years, the boom of the machine learning breeds a lot of methods in this area, which improves the off-targets prediction accuracy effectively. Abadi et al developed CRISTA to detect the offtargets probability, which uses the Random Forest to learn a regression model [16], Listgarten et al proposed Elevation to predict off-targets activities, which relies on scoring and aggregating scores machine learning models [17], Peng et al presented an SVM ensemble learning method to determine the off-targets propensity of a sgRNA [18], and Chuai et al implemented DeepCRISPR to design optimal sgRNA as well as predicting the off-target profile with deep learning [19].…”
