CRISPRplugin-autotooltip__default plugin-autotooltip_bigCRISPR: short for clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats. In bacteria, CRISPR is a form of innate immunity that bacterial cells use as a defense against bacteriophage. The CRISPR system consists of a protein typically called Cas9 and two non-coding RNAs called gRNA and tracrRNA. The: short for clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats.
