Abstract

This dissertation provides an experimental and conceptual characterization of Craspase, a CRISPR-controlled protease. The array of functionalities inherent to Craspase — including precise protein cleavage, guided RNA recognition, and self-regulatory capabilities — highlights the complexity that can emerge from the endless bacterium-virus coevolution.
