Like people, bacteria get invaded by viruses. In bacteria, the viral invaders are called bacteriophages, derived from the ...

Gene editing and many other useful biotechnology tools came from studies of bacteria fighting off viral invaders. But ...

“We believe this is the reason why the CRISPR Cas9 system has a unique relationship with this specific class of temperate phage.” “We can use these types of experiments to find what elements of the ...

Using gene editing with CRISPR-Cas9, the team has been able to study these proteins without altering ... Dec. 13, 2024 — Microorganisms produce a wide variety of natural products that can be ...

CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing exploits the CRISPR-Cas system to modify a genome in a targeted manner. Guided by RNA, the Cas9 endonuclease breaks DNA at a target sequence. Imprecise repair of the ...

When the CRISPR Cas9 protein is added to a cell along with a piece of guide RNA, the Cas9 protein hooks up with the guide RNA and then moves along the strands of DNA until it finds and binds to a ...
