Abstract
Because off-target effects hamper interpretation and validation of RNAi screens, we developed a bioinformatics method, Genome-wide Enrichment of Seed Sequence matches (GESS), to identify candidate off-targeted transcripts from direct analysis of primary screening data. GESS identified a prominent off-targeted transcript in several screens, including MAD2 in a screen for components of the spindle assembly checkpoint. We demonstrate how incorporation of the results of GESS analysis can enhance the validation rate in RNAi screens.
