Using CRISPR-Cas9-mediated genome editing to generate C. difficile mutants defective in selenoproteins synthesis

Clostridium difficile is a significant concern as a nosocomial pathogen, and genetic tools are important when analyzing the physiology of such organisms so that the underlying physiology/pathogenesis of the organisms can be studied. Here, we used TargeTron to investigate the role of selenoproteins i...
