Load raw Fastq files into MAGeCK (Model-based Analysis of Genome-wide CRISPR-Cas9 Knockout, v0.5.9.2) (W. Li et al., 2014).
Use the “count” command to collect read counts from Fastq files and to generate the sgRNA read count table.
Use the “test” command to perform statistical test from the count table, outputting log2 fold change, p value, and false discovery rate (FDR).
Load the result table generated by MAGeCK into ggplot2 (Wickham, 2016) in R to generate a volcano plot.
