Type IV-A3 CRISPR-Cas systems drive inter-plasmid conflicts by acquiring spacers <i>in trans</i>

Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Type IV-A CRISPR-Cas systems are primarily encoded on plasmids and form multi-subunit ribonucleoprotein complexes with unknown biological functions. In contrast to other CRISPR-Cas types, they lack the archetypical CRISPR acquisition module and encode a DinG helicase instead of a nuclease component. Type IV-A3 systems are carried by large conjugative plasmids that often harbor multiple antibioti...
