Molecular characterization of DNA encoding 23S rRNA and 16S-23S rRNA intergenic spacer regions of Aeromonas hydrophila.

abstract：:CRISPR-Cas adaptive immune systems protect bacteria from phage predation, and other foreign genetic elements such as plasmids. Significant advances have been made regarding how CRISPR-Cas systems elicit immunity; however, comparatively little is known about their regulation. To study CRISPR-Cas regulation, we describe...
