Intricate interplay of CRISPR-Cas systems, anti-CRISPR proteins, and antimicrobial resistance genes in a globally successful multi-drug resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae clone by Jianping Jiang, Astrid V. Cienfuegos-Galletd, Tengfei Long, Gisele Peirano, Tingyu Chu, Johann D. D. Pitout, Barry N. Kreiswirth, Liang Chen

“…Interestingly, a prophage-encoding anti-CRISPR AcrIE8.1 and a plasmid-borne anti-CRISPR AcrIE9.2 were detected in 40.1% (406/1012) and 54.2% (548/1012) of strains, respectively, which displayed positive correlations with the presence of a carbapenemase. Plasmid transfer experiments confirmed that the I-E and IV-A3 CRISPR-Cas systems significantly decreased (p < 0.001) KPC-encoding pKpQIL plasmid conjugation frequencies, while the AcrIE8.1 and AcrIE9.2 significantly increased (p < 0.001) pKpQIL conjugation frequencies and protected plasmids from elimination by CRISPR-Cas I-E system. …”
