Structure-guided discovery of anti-CRISPR and anti-phage defense proteins

Identification of putative anti-crispr proteins using structural features To identify Acrs in phage genomes, we began by retrieving ~66.5 million proteins from Integrated Microbial Genomes Virus database (IMG/VR)37. We excluded large proteins because over 90% of known Acrs contain less than 200 amino acids38 (Fig. 1A, Supplementary Data 1). To reduce computational…

Biosensors | Free Full-Text | CRISPR/Cas12a-Based Detection Platform for Early and Rapid Diagnosis of Scrub Typhus

1. Introduction Orientia tsutsugamushi (OT) is an obligate intracellular parasite bacteria and the causative agent of scrub typhus (ST), which is associated with acute febrile illness (AFI) [1] and transmitted by mites through an infected chigger bite (in the larval stage). This disease, which was earlier believed to be endemic…

Ambiguous genes due to aligners and their impact on RNA-seq data analysis

Datasets To avoid the so-called ‘dataset bias’20,that some datasets are generated with specific structures and thus the results are ‘over-optimistic’ (in the case of working with our novel method), we performed the analysis in the light of several real datasets (see Table 4). We used four different datasets from the NCBI…
