An anti-CRISPR that represses its own transcription while blocking Cas9-target DNA binding
Abstract AcrIIA15 is an anti-CRISPR (Acr) protein that inhibits Staphylococcus aureus Cas9 (SaCas9). Although previous studies suggested it has dual functions, the structural and biochemical basis for its two activities remains unclear. Here, we determined the cryo-EM structure of AcrIIA15 in comple...
