Endogenous <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> CRISPR- <i>cas</i> system limits phage proliferation and efficiently excises from the genome as part of the SCC <i>mec</i> cassette

2023-03-19

Abstract excerpt

CRISPR-Cas is an adaptive immune system that allows bacteria to inactivate mobile genetic elements. Approximately 50% of bacteria harbor CRISPR- cas , however in the human pathogen Staphylococcus aureus , CRISPR- cas loci are less common and often studied in heterologous systems. We analyzed the prevalence of CRISPR- cas in genomes of methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) isolated in Denmark. Onl...
