CRISPR-Cas Systems in Bacteroides fragilis, an Important Pathobiont in the Human Gut Microbiome

23 Nov 2017

Abstract excerpt

Background: While CRISPR-Cas systems have been identified in bacteria from a wide variety of ecological niches, there are no studies to describe CRISPR-Cas elements in Bacteroides species, the most prevalent anaerobic bacteria in the lower intestinal tract. Bacteroides make up ~25% of the total gut microbiome. B. fragilis comprises only 2% of the total Bacteroides in the gut, yet causes >70% of Bacteroides...
