A histidine kinase and a response regulator provide phage resistance to Marinomonas mediterranea via CRISPR-Cas regulation

Abstract CRISPR-Cas systems are used by many prokaryotes to defend against invading genetic elements. In many cases, more than one CRISPR-Cas system co-exist in the same cell. Marinomonas mediterranea MMB-1 possesses two CRISPR-Cas systems, of type I–F and III-B respectively, which collaborate in ph...
