Assessing spacer acquisition rates in E. coli type I-E CRISPR arrays
CRISPR/Cas is an adaptive defense mechanism protecting prokaryotes from viruses and other potentially harmful genetic elements. Through an adaptation process, short “spacer” sequences, captured from these elements and incorporated into a CRISPR array, provide target specificity for the immune respon...
