2022-07-20
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Bacterial restriction-modification (R-M) systems are a first line immune defense against foreign DNA from viruses and other bacteria. While R-M systems are critical in maintaining genome integrity, R-M nucleases unfortunately present significant barriers to targeted genetic modification. Bacteria of the genus Fusobacterium are oral, Gram-negative, anaerobic, opportunistic pathogens that are imp...
