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 ...

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 ...

Endogenous CRISPR-Cas System-Based Genome Editing and Antimicrobials: Review and Prospects
CRISPR-Cas systems adapt “memories” via spacers from viruses and plasmids to develop adaptive immunity against mobile genetic elements. Mature CRISPR RNAs guide CRISPR-associated nucleases to site-specifically cleave target DNA or RNA, providing an ...

The CRISPR‐Cas system: small RNA‐guided invader silencing in prokaryotes
CRISPR‐Cas systems are recently discovered, RNA‐based immune systems that control invasions of viruses and plasmids in archaea and bacteria. Prokaryotes with CRISPR‐Cas immune systems capture short invader sequences within the CRISPR loci in their genomes, and produce small RNAs from the CRISPR loci (crRNAs) that recognize the invading nucleic acids ...
