CRISPR-Cas Systems in Prokaryotes [PDF]
Prokaryotic organisms possess numerous strategies that enable survival in hostile conditions. Among others, these conditions include the invasion of foreign nucleic acids such as bacteriophages and plasmids. The clustered regularly interspaced palindromic repeats-CRISPR-associated proteins (CRISPR-Cas) system provides the majority of bacteria and ...

CRISPR-Cas Controls Cryptic Prophages [PDF]
The bacterial archetypal adaptive immune system, CRISPR-Cas, is thought to be repressed in the best-studied bacterium, Escherichia coli K-12. We show here that the E. coli CRISPR-Cas system is active and serves to inhibit its nine defective (i.e., cryptic) prophages.

Background: The CRISPR-Cas (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats–CRISPR-associated proteins) systems are the short DNA sequences and RNA-dependent nuclease involved in the adaptive immunity in bacteria and archaea. The type of CRISPR-

Characterization of CRISPR-Cas Systems in Serratia marcescens Isolated from Rhynchophorus ferrugineus (Olivier, 1790) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) [PDF]
The CRISPR-Cas adaptive immune system has been attracting increasing scientific interest for biological functions and biotechnological applications. Data on the Serratia marcescens system are scarce.

Potent CRISPR-Cas9 inhibitors from Staphylococcus genomes. [PDF]
Anti-CRISPRs (Acrs) are small proteins that inhibit the RNA-guided DNA targeting activity of CRISPR-Cas enzymes. Encoded by bacteriophage and phage-derived bacterial genes, Acrs prevent CRISPR-mediated inhibition of phage infection and can also block ...

High frequency off-target mutagenesis induced by CRISPR-Cas nucleases in human cells
Clustered, regularly interspaced, short palindromic repeat (CRISPR) RNA-guided nucleases (RGNs) have rapidly emerged as a facile and efficient platform for genome editing. Here, we use a human cell–based reporter assay to characterize off-target cleavage

Research advances on pathogenic nucleic acid detection technology based on CRIPSR/Cas system
Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated protein (Cas) (CRISPR/Cas) system, an ancient bacterial and archaeal immune system, has rapidly developed into a popular gene-editing tool, which largely promotes the ...
