Forward genetic screens are powerful tools for the discovery and functional
annotation of genetic elements. Recently, the RNA-guided CRISPR (clustered
regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat)-associated Cas9 nuclease has been
combined with genome-scale guide RNA libraries for unbiased, phenotypic
screening. In this Review, we describe recent advances using Cas9 for
genome-scale screens, including knockout approaches that inactivate genomic loci
and strategies that modulate transcriptional activity. We discuss practical
aspects of screen design, provide comparisons with RNA interference (RNAi)
screening, and outline future applications and challenges.
