Abstract:
Highlights? The Sensor assay reliably identifies potent single-copy shRNAs ? Potent shRNAs are rare and generally not predicted by existing algorithms ? Analyses of ~20,000 shRNAs reveal insights into shRNA biogenesis and function ? Sensor-based rules provide a criteria framework for rational shRNA design
