Identification of spacer and protospacer sequence requirements in the <i>Vibrio cholerae</i> Type I-E CRISPR/Cas System
2020-08-10
Abstract excerpt
The prokaryotic adaptive immune system CRISPR/Cas serves as defense against bacteriophage and invasive nucleic acid. A Type I-E CRISPR/Cas system has been detected in classical biotype isolates of Vibrio cholerae , the causative agent of the disease cholera. Experimental characterization of this system revealed a functional immune system that operates using a 5’-TT-3’ protospacer-adjacent motif (PAM) for interfer...
