CRISPRdb

Repeated CRISPR ("clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats") elements found in archaebacteria and eubacteria are believed to defend against viral infection, potentially targeting invading DNA for degradation. CRISPRdb is a database that stores information on CRISPRs that are automatically extracted from newly released genome sequence data.

在古细菌与真细菌中发现的重复性成簇规律间隔短回文重复序列（Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats，简称CRISPR）被认为能够抵御病毒感染，其潜在机制可能针对入侵的DNA进行降解处理。CRISPRdb是一个数据库，用于存储从新发布的基因组序列数据中自动提取的CRISPR相关信息。
