CRISPR-Cas9: Proteins and Enzymes

Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPRs) are derived from DNA fragments of bacteriophages that infect prokaryotes. When infected, the [[URL:https://www.novusbio.com/research-areas/microbiology/bacterial-pathogen…]] capture snips of DNA from the invading [[URL:https://www.novusbio.com/research-areas/microbiology/viral-pathogens]][…]] to create CRISPR arrays. During subsequent infections, the bacteria produce RNA segments from the CRISPR ...
