Target preference of Type III-A CRISPR-Cas complexes at the transcription bubble

Type III CRISPR-Cas systems are able to target transcriptionally active DNA sequences in phages and plasmids. Here, the authors reveal the mechanism of the target nucleic acid preference of Type III-A CRISPR-Cas complexes at the transcription bubble by a combination of structural and biochemical app...
