Comprehensive workflow Bakta annotates ncRNA cis-regulatory regions, oriC/oriV/oriT and assembly gaps as well as standard feature types: tRNA, tmRNA, rRNA, ncRNA genes, CRISPR, CDS and pseudogenes.

Of the new recruits, one system from bacteria commonly found in dairy cows shows particular promise for human health. Its efficiency is on par with the original and most widely used CRISPR-Cas ...

When viruses or phages first invade the bacteria, Cas proteins recognize and cut the DNA from viruses or phages into short fragments that will be integrated into the CRISPR array. Once bacteria are ...

Antibiotic resistance is a global concern that threatens our ability to prevent and treat bacterial infections ... for Genomic Biology developed a CRISPR-enriched metagenomics method for the ...

For fraternal twins who share 50 percent of their genes, this rate drops to around 2 percent. Scientists have long suspected that gut bacteria may influence a person's risk of developing multiple ...

In some CRISPR systems, an imprecise match between a spacer and ... including primed acquisition directly would require expanding bacterial arrays to at least two spacers. The acquisition probability ...

A research team has elucidated the mechanism behind bacterial cancer therapy using a genetically engineered bacterial strain. Their findings were published in Cell. Exploring the use of antitumor ...
