Investigating Genetic (IN)Compatibility Between Temperate Phages and CRISPR-CAS Systems in Staphylococcus Aureus
… form of defense comprises the adaptive immune systems derived from clustered, regularly interspaced, short palindromic repeat (CRISPR) loci and CRISPR-associated (cas) genes. CRISPR-Cas immune systems enable the acquisition of heritable resistance to specific mobile genetic elements on the …

Phage host range and definition of genes implicated in Type III toxin-antitoxin-mediated abortive infection
… (phages) and have evolved a range of anti-phage systems to defend themselves. One of these systems is termed abortive infection (Abi) where, upon phage infection, an Abi system may be activated which initiate a bacteriostatic or bactericidal response. While the infected bacteria do not obviously …

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 …

Uncovering New Mechanisms of Type III CRISPR-Cas System Inhibition and Effector Function
… (Cas) proteins. While there are seven distinct types of CRISPR-Cas systems identified thus far, we focus on specifically the type III CRISPR system which contains a multi-protein effector complex that functions together with its crRNA in target binding and cleavage. During type III CRISPR-Cas …
