Predicting ...would confound your experimental results and 2) perform targeted off-target measurements at those sites... to quantify off-target effects entirely is to perform whole genome sequencing. While this may be unnecessary... The con to these approaches is that NHEJ must perform the repair to allow for detection, not Homologous...targets as well as clonal differences. If you are performing CRISPR library screens, the same principle holds...
