It is highly desirable to identify gene's function in a high-throughput fashion, and the CRISPR/Cas9 system has been harnessed to meet such a need. Here, we describe a general method to generate genome-scale lentiviral single-guide RNA (sgRNA) library and conduct a pooled function-based screening in human cells. This protocol would be of interest to researchers to rapidly identify genes in a variety of biological processes.
