Associate toxin-antitoxin with CRISPR-Cas to kill multidrug-resistant pathogens [PDF]
CreTA, CRISPR-regulated toxin-antitoxin (TA), safeguards CRISPR-Cas immune systems by inducing cell dormancy/death upon their inactivation. Here, we characterize a bacterial CreTA associating with the I-F CRISPR-Cas in Acinetobacter.
