CRISPR-Cas antimicrobials: Challenges and future prospects
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a serious threat to modern medicine and may render common infections untreatable. The discovery of new antibiotics has come to a relative standstill during the last decade [1], and developing novel approaches to ...

Rapid generation of endogenously driven transcriptional reporters in cells through CRISPR/Cas9 [PDF]
CRISPR/Cas9 technologies have been employed for genome editing to achieve gene knockouts and knock-ins in somatic cells. Similarly, certain endogenous genes have been tagged with fluorescent proteins. Often, the detection of tagged proteins requires high

Dealing with the evolutionary downside of CRISPR immunity: bacteria and beneficial plasmids. [PDF]
The immune systems that protect organisms from infectious agents invariably have a cost for the host. In bacteria and archaea CRISPR-Cas loci can serve as adaptive immune systems that protect these microbes from infectiously transmitted DNAs.
