Widespread anti-CRISPR proteins in virulent bacteriophages inhibit a range of Cas9 proteins
Some phages carry genes coding for anti-CRISPR (Acr) proteins that interfere with the activity of bacterial CRISPR-Cas systems. Here, Hynes et al. characterize a new Acr family from streptococcal phages and investigate its potential in genome-editing applications.
