Structure of the Saccharolobus solfataricus type III-D CRISPR effector
CRISPR-Cas is a prokaryotic adaptive immune system, classified into six different types, each characterised by a signature protein. Type III systems, classified based on the presence of a Cas10 subunit, are rather diverse multi-subunit assemblies with a ...

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 ...

Cpf1 Is a Single RNA-Guided Endonuclease of a Class 2 CRISPR-Cas System [PDF]
The microbial adaptive immune system CRISPR mediates defense against foreign genetic elements through two classes of RNA-guided nuclease effectors. Class 1 effectors utilize multi-protein complexes, whereas class 2 effectors rely on single-component effector proteins such as the well-characterized Cas9.

Computational approaches for effective CRISPR guide RNA design and evaluation
The Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeat (CRISPR)/ CRISPR-associated (Cas) system has emerged as the main technology for gene editing. Successful editing by CRISPR requires an appropriate Cas protein and guide RNA.

A Type IV-A CRISPR-Cas System in Pseudomonas aeruginosa Mediates RNA-Guided Plasmid Interference In Vivo [PDF]
Bacteria and archaea use CRISPR-Cas adaptive immune systems to destroy complementary nucleic acids using RNAs derived from CRISPR loci. Here, we provide the first functional evidence for type IV CRISPR-Cas, demonstrating that the system from Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain PA83 mediates RNA-guided interference against a plasmid in vivo, both clearing the

Type I-E CRISPR-cas systems discriminate target from non-target DNA through base pairing-independent PAM recognition. [PDF]
Discriminating self and non-self is a universal requirement of immune systems. Adaptive immune systems in prokaryotes are centered around repetitive loci called CRISPRs (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat), into which invader DNA ...
