) is a program that helps design, evaluate and clone guide sequences for the CRISPR/Cas9 system.
CRISPOR Manual

Text case is preserved, e.g. you can mark ATGs with lowercase.
Instead of a sequence, you can paste a chromosome range, e.g. chr1:11,130,540-11,130,751
Step 2
Select a genome
-- No Genome: no specificity, only cleavage efficiency scores (max. len 25kbp)
Felis catus - Domestic cat - Ensembl 89 (Felis_catus_6.2)
Homo sapiens - Human - UCSC Dec. 2013 (GRCh38/hg38)
Homo sapiens - Human - UCSC Feb. 2009 (GRCh37/hg19)
Mus musculus - Mouse (reference) - UCSC Dec. 2011 (mm10=C57BL/6J)
Saccharomyces cerevisiae - S. cerevisiae - UCSC Apr. 2011 (SacCer_Apr2011/sacCer3)
Spodoptera frugiperda - Fall armyworm - E. Joly 3.1
Spodoptera littoralis - African cotton leafworm - from Manue V2
Note: pre-calculated exonic guides for this species are on the
UCSC Genome Browser
.
