Occurrence and diversity of CRISPR-Cas systems in the genus bifidobacterium [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
CRISPR-Cas systems constitute adaptive immune systems for antiviral defense in bacteria. We investigated the occurrence and diversity of CRISPR-Cas systems in 48 Bifidobacterium genomes to gain insights into the diversity and co-evolution of CRISPR-Cas ...

The tracrRNA and Cas9 families of type II CRISPR-Cas immunity systems

open access: yesRNA Biology, 2013
CRISPR-Cas is a rapidly evolving RNA-mediated adaptive immune system that protects bacteria and archaea against mobile genetic elements. The system relies on the activity of short mature CRISPR RNAs (crRNAs) that guide Cas protein(s) to silence invading ...

Structural basis for RNA-mediated assembly of type V CRISPR-associated transposons

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2022
CRISPR systems have been co-opted by Tn7-like elements to direct RNA-guided transposition. Type V-K CRISPR-associated transposons rely on the concerted activities of the pseudonuclease Cas12k, the AAA+ ATPase TnsC, the Zn-finger protein TniQ, and the ...

MARPLE: A Proximity‐Triggered CRISPR‐Cas13 Platform for Ultrasensitive Antibody Detection

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
MARPLE is a modular CRISPR‐Cas13 immunoassay that uses antibody‐induced proximity to trigger a toehold‐exchange reaction, releasing an RNA activator for Cas13. This one‐pot, isothermal architecture enables ultrasensitive (femtomolar) and highly specific detection of diverse antibodies, including therapeutic, pathogen‐specific, and cancer‐associated ...

Hook3 is a scaffold for the opposite-polarity microtubule-based motors cytoplasmic dynein-1 and KIF1C. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The unidirectional and opposite-polarity microtubule-based motors, dynein and kinesin, drive long-distance intracellular cargo transport. Cellular observations suggest that opposite-polarity motors may be coupled.

Functional rescue of dystrophin deficiency in mice caused by frameshift mutations using Campylobacter jejuni Cas9 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a fatal, X-linked muscle wasting disease caused by mutations in the DMD gene. In 51% of DMD cases, a reading frame is disrupted because of deletion of several exons.

Biomimetic Membrane Interface Technologies for Detection and Isolation of CTCs and EVs: Advances and Opportunities in Liquid Biopsy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Biomimetic membrane interface engineering constructs functionalized detection platforms by integrating natural cell membranes, synthetic lipids, or hybrid membranes. This strategy effectively reduces background interference and enables efficient target capture and analysis, showing broad applications in circulating tumor cell separation, extracellular ...
