Description | CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats) elements and cas (CRISPR-associated) genes are widespread in Bacteria and Archaea. The CRISPR/Cas system operates as a defense mechanism against mobile genetic elements (i.e., viruses or plasmids). Csa1 is part of the archaeal subtype I-A system. Cas1 has not yet been enzymatically characterised [ ]. |
