Mode of Action (MoA)
|
prevents Cas9 binding to DNA by occluding the protein residues required for DNA binding.
|
|
Evidence
|
Genetic deletions of acrIIA2 (deletion mutation phenotypic evidence, ECO_0001038) in the prophage result in restored CRISPR-Cas9 function, as demonstrated by regained plasmid-targeting ability in Listeria monocytogenes. Conversely, ectopic expression of gene (ECO_0000017) in a CRISPR-active, prophage-cured background inhibits CRISPR-Cas9 activity, restoring transformation/plating efficiency with a targeted plasmid. Binding is supported by x-ray crystallography evidence (ECO_0005670).
