The CRISPR-CRISPR-associated (Cas) system evolved in bacteria as a defense mechanism against infection from bacteriophages and to prevent the loss of their genome through horizontal gene transfer.

CRISPR-Cas systems are prokaryotic immune systems that confer resistance to foreign genetic elements such as plasmids and phages. CRISPR-Cas systems have been exploited for targeted genome editing.

says Modell. The Johns Hopkins investigators say bacteria have long been known to use CRISPR-Cas systems to chop up phage DNA ...
