Mycobacterial cell division arrest and smooth-to-rough envelope transition using CRISPRi-mediated genetic repression systems Point, V., Achache, W., Laudouze, J., Sepulveda Ramos, E., Maziero, M., Crauste, C., Canaan, S. and Santucci, P. The genetic basis underlying nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) pathogenesis remains poorly understood. This gap in knowledge has been partially filled over the years through the generation of novel and efficient genetic tools, including the r
