ISC, a Novel Group of Bacterial and Archaeal DNA Transposons That Encode Cas9 Homologs
Bacterial genomes encode numerous homologs of Cas9, the effector protein of the type II CRISPR-Cas systems. The homology region includes the arginine-rich helix and the HNH nuclease domain that is inserted into the RuvC-like nuclease domain. These genes, however, are not linked to cas genes or CRISP...
