In silico analysis reveals the co-existence of CRISPR-Cas type I-F1 and type I-F2 systems and its association with restricted phage invasion in Acinetobacter baumannii

IntroductionAcinetobacter baumannii, an opportunistic pathogen, rapidly acquires antibiotic resistance, thus compelling researchers to develop alternative treatments at utmost priority. Phage-based therapies are of appreciable benefit; however, CRISPR-Cas systems are a major constraint in this appro...
