Biased acquisition of spacers by the CRISPR System of the V. cholerae
(Brac University, 2021-09)Cholera is a deadly waterborne disease that is caused by the serogroup of O1 or O139 of Vibrio cholerae. Also, there are many non-pathogenic Vibrio cholerae strains known as non-O1 and non-O139. Bacteriophages are bacteria ... -
CRISPR/Cas9 system: A versatile gene editing tool in disease prevention and treatment
(Brac University, 2019-10)With the development of genome editing as a promising mechanism for disease prevention and treatment, clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) is a robust and multiplexed tool that is able to ... -
Exploring the possible function and acquisition pattern of self-targeting Spacers: in five common infectious bacteria
(Brac University, 2019-12)The adaptive immunity in prokaryotes known as Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR) and its CRISPR associated (Cas) genes provide the encoding organisms with the ability to resist invasive ... -
Genomic analysis of the correlation between CRISPR self-targeting spacers and prophage-related pathogenicity in Vibrio cholerae and Staphylococcus aureus
(Brac University, 2024-10)The interactions between bacteria and phages are intricate and dynamic, manifesting through two main life cycles: the lytic cycle, in which phages destroy their hosts via cell lysis, and the lysogenic cycle, where phage ...
