Incomplete prophage tolerance by type III-A CRISPR-Cas systems reduces the fitness of lysogenic hosts

CRISPR–Cas systems offer an immune mechanism through which prokaryotic hosts can acquire heritable resistance to genetic parasites, including temperate phages. Co-transcriptional DNA and RNA targeting by type III-A CRISPR–Cas systems restricts temperate phage lytic infections while allowing lysogeni...
