CRISPR-Cas-Mediated Tethering Recruits the Yeast HMR Mating-Type Locus to the Nuclear Periphery but Fails to Silence Gene Expression

open access: yes, 2021
To investigate the relationship between genome structure and function, we have developed a programmable CRISPR-Cas system for nuclear peripheral recruitment in yeast.

Diversity of CRISPR-Cas type II-A systems in Streptococcus anginosus

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Streptococcus anginosus is a commensal Streptococcal species that is often associated with invasive bacterial infections. However, little is known about its molecular genetic background. Many Streptococcal species, including S.

New CRISPR-Cas systems discovered [PDF]

open access: yesCell Research, 2017
In bacteria and archaea, CRISPR-Cas adaptive immune systems utilize RNA-guided endonucleases to defend against invasion by foreign nucleic acids of bacteriophage, virus and plasmid origin. In a recent paper published in Nature, Burstein et al. identified the first Cas9 protein in uncultivated archaea and two novel CRISPR-CasX and CRISPR-CasY systems in

CRISPR/Cas systems: Delivery and application in gene therapy

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
The CRISPR/Cas systems in prokaryotes such as bacteria and archaea are the adaptive immune system to prevent infection from viruses, phages, or other foreign substances. When viruses or phages first invade the bacteria, Cas proteins recognize and cut the

CRISPR-Cas systems in enterococci

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Microbiology
Enterococci are members of the microbiota of humans and other animals. They can also be found in the environment, associated with food, healthcare infections, and hospital settings. Due to their wide distribution, they are inserted in the One Health context.

Phylogenetic Distribution of CRISPR-Cas Systems in Antibiotic-Resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa

open access: yesmBio, 2015
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an antibiotic-refractory pathogen with a large genome and extensive genotypic diversity. Historically, P. aeruginosa has been a major model system for understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying type I clustered regularly ...

Annotation and Classification of CRISPR-Cas Systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-Cas (CRISPR-associated proteins) is a prokaryotic adaptive immune system that is represented in most archaea and many bacteria. Among the currently known prokaryotic defense systems, the CRISPR-Cas genomic loci show unprecedented complexity and diversity.

An updated evolutionary classification of CRISPR–Cas systems [PDF]

open access: yesNature Reviews Microbiology, 2015
The evolution of CRISPR-cas loci, which encode adaptive immune systems in archaea and bacteria, involves rapid changes, in particular numerous rearrangements of the locus architecture and horizontal transfer of complete loci or individual modules. These dynamics complicate straightforward phylogenetic classification, but here we present an approach ...

Rab14 regulates the transport of human papillomavirus to the trans‐Golgi network for infectious cell entry

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals that the small GTPase Rab14 is necessary for human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and plays an essential role in the transport of virions to the trans‐Golgi network (TGN). HPV in the early endosome (EE), which harbors GTP‐bound Rab14, is transported to the TGN through the switch of Rab14 from its GTP‐bound to GDP‐bound form.

CRISPR-Cas System in Antibiotic Resistance Plasmids in Klebsiella pneumoniae

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
CRISPR-Cas (clustered regularly interspersed short palindromic repeats-CRISPR-associated protein) is a microbial adaptive immune system involved in defense against different types of mobile genetic elements.
