CRISPR-Cas-Mediated Gene Silencing Reveals RacR To Be a Negative Regulator of YdaS and YdaT Toxins in Escherichia coli K-12

Bacterial genomes are rich in horizontally acquired prophages. racR is an essential gene located in the rac prophage that is resident in many Escherichia coli genomes. Employing a clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR)-Cas-based gene silencing approach, we show that RacR i...
