The discovery of Viral Interference Programmable Repeat systems consisting of a Vipr protein ancestral to the earliest CRISPR-Cas effectors and VIPR RNAs (vrRNAs) comprising alternating GGY/NN motifs suggests that adaptive immunity originated from ancient warfare between viruses.

A large and diverse dataset comprising paired RNA sequences and their corresponding secondary structures is developed, and SincFold exhibited improved performance on a set of previously unseen RNA families, enhancing its capability to predict accurate de novo RNA secondary structures.

A protein design strategy is used that couples a structure-guided inverse-folding model with evolution-informed residue constraints to generate active, divergent variants of TnpB, a minimal CRISPR-Cas12-like nuclease, termed SynTnpBs, establishing a strategy for creating non-natural RNA-guided nucleases and conformatio...
