CRISPR clusters contain spacers, sequences complementary to antecedent mobile elements, and target invading nucleic acids. CRISPR clusters are transcribed and processed into CRISPR RNA (crRNA) (Probable). The type III-A Csm effector complex binds crRNA and acts as a crRNA-guided RNase, DNase and cyclic oligoadenylate synthase; binding of target RNA cognate to the crRNA is required for all activities. This protein is not part of the Csm effector complex (Probable). A single-strand-specific endoribonuclease (ssRNase) producing free 5'-OH (PubMed:26763118). Activity is approximately 1000-fold stimulated by cyclic oligoadenylate (cOA); only cyclic tetraadenylate (cA4) stimulates the ssRNase activity while linear oligoadenylates do not activate the RNase (PubMed:28663439). Another study showed stimulation by linear tetraadenylate at very high concentrations, but did not examine stimulation by cA4 (PubMed:28722012).
