Biochemical characterization of type I-E anti-CRISPR proteins, AcrIE2 and AcrIE4
Abstract In bacteria and archaea, CRISPRs and Cas proteins constitute an adaptive immune system against invading foreign genetic materials, such as bacteriophages and plasmids. To counteract CRISPR-mediated immunity, bacteriophages encode anti-CRISPR (Acr) proteins that neutralize the host CRISPR–Ca...
