Characterising Host Factors Required for CRISPR Cas Adaptation in Escherichia coli
The evolution of diverse prokaryotic immune systems has been driven by the constant threat of invasion by foreign genetic elements. Many prokaryotes contain the CRISPR-Cas system, which provides adaptive immunity through the acquisition of unique spacer sequences into the CRISPR array. These sequenc...
