Phage have been of interest to scientists as tools to understand fundamental molecular biology, as vectors of horizontal gene transfer and drivers of bacterial evolution, as sources of diagnostic and genetic tools, and as novel therapeutic agents. He continued: “CBASS cyclases look a lot like cGAS, so they have to be sensing something.

In the paper, researchers from Johns Hopkins University and elsewhere found a natural long-form transactivating CRISPR RNA (tracr-L) in Streptococcus pyogenes that functions to downregulate its endogenous CRISPR-Cas9 system. But altering the tracr-L with genetic engineering to make it function more like a guide RNA increased CRISPR-Cas9 cuts.
