Inhibition of NHEJ repair by type II-A CRISPR-Cas systems in bacteria
The double-strand breaks generated by CRISPR-Cas systems are the target of multiple DNA repair pathways. Here the authors find incompatibility between NHEJ and type II-A CRISPR-Cas systems due to Csn2 mediated inhibition of end-joining.
