Accessory Nucleases Provide Robust Antiparasite Immunity for Type III CRISPR-Cas Systems
… employ diverse and sophisticated defence systems. Clustered, regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-Cas systems are adaptive immune systems that can integrate short "spacers" from a parasite into its CRISPR locus as a form of immunological memory. Upon reinfection, short …

Identification and Characterization of Novel CRISPR-Cas Immune Effectors
… this threat. One of the most abundant immune systems bacteria have evolved to combat this are CRISPR-Cas systems, which have been studied extensively due to their fascinating biology and usefulness in biotechnology and therapeutics. My thesis focuses on the discovery and characterization of …
