Evaluation of RNAi and CRISPR technologies by large-scale gene expression profiling in the Connectivity Map.

The application of RNA interference (RNAi) to mammalian cells has provided the means to perform phenotypic screens to determine the functions of genes. Although RNAi has revolutionized loss-of-function genetic experiments, it has been difficult to systematically assess the prevalence and consequence...
