Diversity-Generating Retroelements in Prokaryotic Immunity
Adaptive immunity systems found in different organisms fall into two major types. Prokaryotes possess CRISPR-Cas systems that recognize former invaders using memorized (captured) pieces of their DNA as pathogen signatures. Mammals possess a vast repertoire of antibodies and T-cell receptor variants...
