The crisprVerse is a collection of packages for CRISPR guide RNA (gRNA) design that can easily be installed
with the crisprVerse package. This provides
a convenient way of downloading and installing all crisprVerse packages
with a single R command.
The package can be installed from the Bioconductor devel branch using the following commands in an R session:
if (!requireNamespace("BiocManager", quietly = TRUE))
install.packages("BiocManager")
BiocManager::install(version="devel")
BiocManager::install("crisprVerse")
The core crisprVerse includes the packages that are commonly used for
gRNA design, and are attached when you attach the crisprVerse package:
library(crisprVerse)
You can check that all crisprVerse packages are up-to-date
with the function crisprVerse_update().
The following packages are installed and loaded with the crisprVerse package:
