Suppression of Antimicrobial Resistance in MRSA Using CRISPR-dCas9

2017-10-01

Abstract excerpt

Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPRs) are genetic elements that function with CRISPR-Associated (Cas) proteins as an adaptive immune system to foreign genetic material in prokaryotic organisms. The CRISPR-dCas9 system is modified to suppress gene transcription. Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a dangerous human pathogen that is resistant to beta-lactam antibiotics...
