RiboCas: A Universal CRISPR-Based Editing Tool for Clostridium (2019)
Journal Article
Cañadas, I. C., Groothuis, D., Zygouropoulou, M., Rodrigues, R., & Minton, N. P. (2019). RiboCas: A Universal CRISPR-Based Editing Tool for Clostridium. ACS Synthetic Biology, 8(6), 1379-1390. https://doi.org/10.1021/acssynbio.9b00075

Members of the genus Clostridium represent a diverse assemblage of species exhibiting both medical and industrial importance. Deriving both a greater understanding of their biology, while at the same time enhancing their exploitable properties, requi...

© 2019, The Author(s). Understanding the molecular pathogenesis of Clostridioides difficile has relied on the use of ermB-based mutagens in erythromycin-sensitive strains. However, the repeated subcultures required to isolate sensitive variants can l...
