CRISPR-Cas antimicrobials: Challenges and future prospects
, 2018 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]
, 2015 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]
PLoS Genetics, 2013 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.

CRISPR-Cas in Streptococcus pyogenes [PDF]
RNA Biology, 2019 The discovery and characterization of the prokaryotic CRISPR-Cas immune system has led to a revolution in genome editing and engineering technologies. Despite the fact that most applications emerged after the discovery of the type II-A CRISPR-Cas9 system of Streptococcus pyogenes, its biological importance in this organism has received little attention.

Evolution and classification of the CRISPR–Cas systems [PDF]
Nature Reviews Microbiology, 2011 The CRISPR-Cas (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats-CRISPR-associated proteins) modules are adaptive immunity systems that are present in many archaea and bacteria. These defence systems are encoded by operons that have an extraordinarily diverse architecture and a high rate of evolution for both the cas genes and the unique ...
