Characterization of 67 Confirmed Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats Loci in 52 Strains of Staphylococci

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), which is one of the most important species of Staphylococci, poses a great threat to public health. Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) and their CRISPR-associated proteins (Cas) are an ...

How CRISPR-Cas System Could Be Used to Combat Antimicrobial Resistance

open access: yesInfection and Drug Resistance, 2020
Rapid emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria has made it harder for us to combat infectious diseases and to develop new antibiotics. The clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats – CRISPR-associated (CRISPR-Cas) system, as a bacterial

Cas1 and Cas2 From the Type II-C CRISPR-Cas System of Riemerella anatipestifer Are Required for Spacer Acquisition

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2018
Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) and CRISPR-associated (Cas) proteins provide acquired genetic immunity against the entry of mobile genetic elements (MGEs).

New CRISPR–Cas systems from uncultivated microbes [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2016
CRISPR-Cas systems provide microbes with adaptive immunity by employing short DNA sequences, termed spacers, that guide Cas proteins to cleave foreign DNA. Class 2 CRISPR-Cas systems are streamlined versions, in which a single RNA-bound Cas protein recognizes and cleaves target sequences.

DNA Nanomaterials for Delivery of Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats/Cas Systems

open access: yesSmall Structures, 2023
The clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/associated protein (CRISPR/Cas) system has been exploited as an efficient gene editing tool with precise site specificity and high efficiency; the delivery of the CRISPR/Cas system is

Hot and crispy : CRISPR-Cas systems in the hyperthermophile Sulfolobus solfataricus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats) and Cas (CRISPR-associated) genes are widely spread in bacteria and archaea, representing an intracellular defence system against invading viruses and plasmids.

Drug Inducible CRISPR/Cas Systems

open access: yesComputational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2019
Clustered, regularly interspaced, short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated protein (Cas) systems have been employed as a powerful versatile technology for programmable gene editing, transcriptional modulation, epigenetic modulation, and genome labeling, etc.

Determination of Acr-mediated immunosuppression in Pseudomonas aeruginosa

open access: yesMethodsX, 2023
Bacteria have a broad array of defence mechanisms to fight bacteria-specific viruses (bacteriophages, phages) and other invading mobile genetic elements. Among those mechanisms, the ‘CRISPR-Cas’ (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats –
