Abstract
SUMMARY: Transcription activator-like effector nucleases (TALENs) have become an accepted tool for targeted mutagenesis, but undesired off-targets remain an important issue. We present TALENoffer, a novel tool for the genome-wide prediction of TALEN off-targets. We show that TALENoffer successfully predicts known off-targets of engineered TALENs and yields a competitive runtime, scanning complete mammalian genomes within a few minutes. AVAILABILITY: TALENoffer is available as a command line program from http://www.jstacs.de/index.php/TALENoffer and as a Galaxy server at http://galaxy.informatik.uni-halle.de.
