Programming CRISPRi to control the lifecycle of bacteriophage T7 by Tobias Bergmiller

“…Fluorescent reporter assays reveal that CRISPRi targeting of promoters in the internalisation signal is only moderately effective, whereas the downregulation of the phage’s own T7 RNAP occurs very efficiently. Effects on the time to lysis were strongest when the left-most promoter on the leading end of the T7 genome or T7 RNAP was targeted. …”
