Virus-borne mini-CRISPR arrays are involved in interviral conflicts

Here, the authors investigate the diversity and dynamics of the CRISPRome in the hyperthermophilic archaea of the order Sulfolobales, and find the most abundant spacers to come from mini-CRISPR arrays of archaeal viruses, which might represent a strategy for superinfection exclusion and promotion of...
