CRISPR/Cas12a‐mediated genome engineering in the photosynthetic bacterium Rhodobacter capsulatus
Summary Purple non‐sulfur photosynthetic bacteria (PNSB) such as Rhodobacter capsulatus serve as a versatile platform for fundamental studies and various biotechnological applications. In this study, we sought to develop the class II RNA‐guided CRISPR/Cas12a system from Francisella novicida for geno...
