Targeted elimination of Vancomycin resistance gene vanA by CRISPR-Cas9 system

Abstract Objective The purpose of this study is to reduce the spread of the vanA gene by curing the vanA-harboring plasmid of vancomycin-resistant using the CRISPR-Cas9 system. Methods Two specific spacer sequence (sgRNAs) specific was designed to target the vanA gene and cloned into plasmid CRISPR-...
