CRISPR/CPF1

The CRISPR-Cas system is a powerful tool for genetic modification that has its root in bacterial immunity systems. We decided to study a newly discovered Cas protein that showed promise because of its unique properties.


The CRISPR-Cas System

CRISPR-Cas systems are bacterial adaptive immunity systems. Functional CRISPR-loci are present in about 45% of known bacteria and the systems protects them from foreign DNA, for example bacteriophages, that might harm them. The basis for the systems is that short sequences of foreign DNA are incorporated into the hosts cell’s own genome, which later can be used for recognizing and eliminating the same threat if it reoccurs. Since the changes are made on gene level, immunity can be passed on to the offspring and thereby improve the fitness of the whole strain.

Boop

CRISPR-Cas systems are bacterial adaptive immunity systems. Functional CRISPR-loci are present in about 45% of known bacteria and the systems protects them from foreign DNA, for example bacteriophages, that might harm them. The basis for the systems is that short sequences of foreign DNA are incorporated into the hosts cell’s own genome, which later can be used for recognizing and eliminating the same threat if it reoccurs. Since the changes are made on gene level, immunity can be passed on to the offspring and thereby improve the fitness of the whole strain.
