Prevention of Klebsiella pneumoniae antibiotic resistance plasmid dissemination by prophylactic or simultaneous CRISPR-Cas9 treatment.

Clàudia Morros-Bernaus, Nia Feakes, Urszula Oko…·David Sünderhauf

This study demonstrates that mobile CRISPR-Cas9 tools can effectively prevent the dissemination of an AMR plasmid from K. pneumoniae to E. coli under various experimental conditions.

Escape from antimicrobial CRISPR-Cas9 in E. coli ST131 depends on the genetic context of the target gene.

Clàudia Morros-Bernaus, Joseph Westley, Ethan R. Wyrsch…·Stineke van Houte

This study investigates CRISPR-Cas9 antimicrobial activity against E. coli ST131 and identifies two escape mechanisms, showing that genetic context of the target gene influences escape frequency.
