CRISPR information panel of the CRISPRstudio

We have developed a tool to assist in the development of synthetic CRISPR systems.

• Pick spacers from a source sequence, based on homology with the target genome, hairpinning potential, restriction sites, and known PAMs.
• Output arrays with various formats based on generated spacers.
• Display and gather CRISPR information using a database cultivated from several sources.

Downloads

• Python source: [http://code.google.com/p/crispr-studio/ CRISPRstudio at GoogleCode]

• See Source for details.

• Executable: [http://code.google.com/p/crispr-studio/downloads/detail?name=CRISPRstudio-r52b-win.zip Windows]

• Dependencies: BLAST+ 2.2.25 or compatible.

Installation

Using the provided binaries is the fastest way to get started with CRISPRstudio. Visit our GoogleCode page and select the downloads tab. Download the appropriate build based on your OS. All builds are provided for x87 platforms. For x64 real support, you will need to run the source directly. x64 support has not shown significant speed increases for CRISPRstudio.

Extract the compressed file to some location. You also need to download BLAST+ 2.2.25 or compatible. BLAST+ must be installed and included in the system path. On most systems, the BLAST+ installer will take care of this. After this, you may run MainFrame to start the program.
