Description: Provides a comprehensive suite of functions to design and
        annotate CRISPR guide RNA (gRNAs) sequences. This includes on-
        and off-target search, on-target efficiency scoring, off-target
        scoring, full gene and TSS contextual annotations, and SNP
        annotation (human only). It currently support five types of
        CRISPR modalities (modes of perturbations): CRISPR knockout,
        CRISPR activation, CRISPR inhibition, CRISPR base editing, and
        CRISPR knockdown. All types of CRISPR nucleases are supported,
        including DNA- and RNA-target nucleases such as Cas9, Cas12a,
        and Cas13d. All types of base editors are also supported. gRNA
        design can be performed on reference genomes, transcriptomes,
        and custom DNA and RNA sequences. Both unpaired and paired gRNA
        designs are enabled.
