Structure and Function of a Transposon-Encoded CRISPR-Cas System
CRISPR-Cas defense systems are employed by their hosts to prevent parasitization by mobile genetic elements. The discovery of nuclease-deficient CRISPR-Cas systems contained within transposon ends suggested a repurposing of the contained defense system. One such Type I-F3 CRISPR-Cas system was found...
