“Off-target effects” a vague catch-all term for unintended consequences in an experiment. For CRISPR work, this often means DNA cleavage at unanticipated sites. While off-target effects are nearly impossible to eliminate, it ’ s essential to understand them in order to design the most specific assays possible. In this blog, we will discuss when off-targets can be an issue in CRISPR, how to predict and minimize them, and ways to control for and quantify them when they can’t be avoided.
