Summary: | The present invention provides methods, systems, and compositions for interfering with the function and/or presence of a target DNA sequence in a eukaryotic cell (e.g., located in vitro or in a subject) using crRNA and CRISPR-associated (cas) proteins or cas encoding nucleic acids. The present invention also relates to a method for interfering with horizontal gene transfer based on the use of clustered, regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR) sequences. |
