To help you unravel your genes and pathways of interest, we collaborated with The Wellcome Sanger Institute to make the first arrayed lentiviral CRISPR knockout libraries for human and mouse genomes.1 Covering over 17,000 human and over 20,000 mouse genes with two optimized gRNAs for each of them, our Sanger Whole Genome Arrayed Libraries are powerful tools that can help you make the next exciting discovery. ## Arrayed Screens are Effective and Versatile, even in Difficult-to-transfect Cell Lines While pooled CRISPR libraries can provide genome-wide knockout, an arrayed approach offers many benefits:   - Enriched phenotypic content: flexibility in functional assays and analysis possibilities beyond viability—use cell imaging, fluorescence, luminescence, and colorimetric readouts - Streamlined data analysis: easy hit identification with no requirement for deconvolution - High sensitivity: a single target in every well provides better signal-to-noise ratio - Ease of identifying candidate genes: closer genotype to phenotype correlation - Flexibility: can be applied to a wider range of cell types including primary cells and neurons Our Sanger Arrayed CRISPR Libraries are exclusive to the Sigma-Aldrich® portfolio, and are available off-the-shelf. They can be combined with other tools to get the results you need: perform initial pilot experiments and optimize your cellular system and assays with our CRISPR controls, or use the arrayed libraries as part of complementary experiments with our existing [CRISPR](https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/AT/en/product/sigma/crispr), [RNAi](https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/AT/en/products/molecular-biology-and-functional-genomics/gene-editing-and-functional-genomics/rnai-libraries) and [ORF](https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/AT/en/product/SIGMA/ORF) libraries for validation or rescue.  ## Start Your CRISPR Screen Today Why troubleshoot false positive results when you can use the gRNA-optimized, arrayed Sanger CRISPR libraries? Our exclusive Sanger CRISPR library provides extensive, high-quality gene knockout, so you can fast-track your research with the first whole genome arrayed library.  ![BFP expression in A549-Cas9-Blast stable cells infected with arrayed CRISPR lenti-gRNA viruses, seven days post infection, 20X magnification](https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/content/dam/cms-commons/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/images/technical-documents/articles/genomics/advanced-gene-editing/a549-cas9-blast-stable-cells.jpg "BFP expression in A549-Cas9-Blast stable cells") Our lentiviral-based CRISPR screens offer many options in their application: - Stable or transient transfection - Enrich population of cells (vectors allow puromycin- and BFP-based selection) - BFP tag allows visualization of positive cells (__Figure 1__) - Create a stable cell line with viral particles for sustained integration - Transduce virtually any cell type (both dividing and non-dividing cell lines) - Get custom titers, suitable for any application __Figure 1__.

Designed to maximize knockouts, the gRNAs are highly effective as assessed by CEL-I assays for indel detection. In addition, two gRNAs are provided for each gene, allowing candidate stratification following a whole-genome screen, maximizing efficiency and reducing false positives. ![Cell growth after puromycin selection for four days](https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/content/dam/cms-commons/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/images/technical-documents/articles/genomics/advanced-gene-editing/non-infected-cells.jpg "Sanger gRNA Application Data - Non Infected Cells") __A.__ ![ Cell growth after puromycin selection for four days - Infected with Virus](https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/content/dam/cms-commons/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/images/technical-documents/articles/genomics/advanced-gene-editing/infected-with-virus.jpg "Sanger gRNA Application Data - Cells Infected with virus") ![Representative gel from CEL-I Assay](https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/content/dam/cms-commons/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/images/technical-documents/articles/genomics/advanced-gene-editing/grna-application-data.jpg "Representative gel from CEL-I Assay") __B.__ ![High average CRISPR nuclease activity](https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/content/dam/cms-commons/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/images/technical-documents/articles/genomics/advanced-gene-editing/high-average-crispr-nuclease-activity.jpg "High average CRISPR nuclease activity") __C.__ __Figure 3.__ Clones from the Sanger lenti-gRNA library demonstrate definitive gene editing in a CEL-I assay for mutation detection.
