+# A systematic genome-wide mapping of oncogenic mutation selection during CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing
+
+This repository contains code used in our study on the potential selection of specific cancer drivers mutation during CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing.
+
+The Data folder contains the data needed for analysis.
+The Tools folder contains various R scripts for performing the analysis (file names starting with "Step") and plotting the results (file names starting with "Plot").
+Specifically:
+
+* Step0_Globally_used_Functions_and_Datasets.R: defining some functions used for the analysis
+
+* Step1_identify_master_regulators_and_CDE_genes.R: identification of the CDE+/- genes, as well as the potential CRISPR-selected cancer genes (CCDs)
+
+* Step2_emperical_p_value_calculations.R: computing empricial P value for the CCD identification analysis
+
+* Step3_p53_analysis_with_only_LOF_mutations.R: confirming the robustness of the p53 results, considering only p53 LOF mutations
+
+* Step4_compute_mean_risk_score.R: computing the score representing the effect size for mutant selection for each CCD gene
+
+* Step5_pathway_and_chr_location_enrichment_of_CDE_genes.R: pathway and chromosomal location enrichment analysis of CDE+/- genes
+
+* Step6_CDE_genes_for_MOLM13_cell_line.R: CDE+/- genes identification specifically for the MOLM13 cell line
+
+* Step7A_preprocess_data_for_CRISPR_screen_in_MOLM13.R: preprocessing the CRISPR-KO/CRISPRi genetic screen data in MOLM13 cell line
+
+* Step7B_analyze_CRISPR_screen_data_in_MOLM13_p53.R: nalyzing the CRISPR-KO/CRISPRi genetic screen data in p53-isogenic MOLM13 cell line
+
+* Step7C_analyze_CRISPR_screen_data_in_MOLM13_KRAS.R: analyzing the CRISPR-KO/CRISPRi genetic screen data in KRAS-isogenic MOLM13 cell line
+
+* Step8_p53_analysis_Haapemeini.R: re-analysis of the genetic screen data from Haapemeini et al.
+
+* Step9_analyze_published_CRISPR_screens.R: analysis of published CRISPR screen in p53 or KRAS-isogenic cells
+
+* Step10_Cas9vsdriverStatus.R: analysis of Cas9 activity difference by the mutation status of cancer genes
+
+* Step11_addressing_penetrance.R: addressing the potential confounding factor of the different penetrance associated with CRISPR-KO and RNAi
