The CRISPR/Cas-associated scaRNA modulates efeUOB expression and stress responses in Neisseria meningitidis

Abstract Neisseria meningitidis is a human-adapted commensal pathogen that must continuously balance nutrient acquisition with stress tolerance. Here, we identify a type II-C CRISPR/Cas-associated small RNA (scaRNA) as a posttranscriptional regulator of the efeUOB operon and oxidative stress responses. Using in vitro R...
