Use of CRISPR interference for efficient and rapid gene inactivation in <i>Fusobacterium nucleatum</i>
2023-09-20
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Gene inactivation via creating in-frame deletion mutations in Fusobacterium nucleatum is time-consuming, and most fusobacterial strains are genetically intractable. Addressing these problems, we introduced a riboswitch-based inducible CRISPRi system. This system employs the nuclease-inactive Streptococcus pyogenes Cas9 protein (dCas9), specifically guided to the gene of interest by a constantl...
