Building CRISPR immunity: evolution and mechanisms of spacer acquisition.

CRISPR-Cas systems in prokaryotes serve as adaptive immune systems that neutralize phage infections through RNA-guided nucleases. Immunization is achieved during the adaptation stage through Cas1-Cas2 integrase-mediated insertion of short foreign DNA snippets, termed spacers, into a CRISPR array in the host genome. Thi...

Piercing mechanism in the minimal contractile tail of bacteriophage P2

A previously undescribed fold is identified in the head-to-tail adaptor, which mediates the transition from 12-fold portal symmetry to sixfold tail symmetry through interlocking β-strand “handshake” interactions and support a distinct model of contractile tail activation and expand the known architectural diversity of...
