Hi
My guess is that you have a cas operon in "cas_operons_putative.tab" on Contig51 with no definite subtype, which is close to a CRISPR array. Maybe it's cas1 and cas2, which seems missing from the I-B cas operon on Contig137. I can see that the output is confusing in this case
These are the results for contig 51 on cas_operons_putative.tab

It seems a bit ambiguous, but I show the results in case the same thing happens to another user
Yeah, so you have an adaptation module (cas1, cas2, cas4) next to a CRISPR array on contig51, and the best guess cctyper can give is I-B due to the CRISPR repeat sequence. And then you have a I-B interference module on contig137
Thanks!
Hello! I've been using CCTyper and I'm very happy with the performance and results, but I have a question about the results of an isolate assembly. This is the
CRISPR_Cas.tab
file:However, when I go to the
cas_operons.tab
file, I find:This file shows the same results as the
cas_operons_orphan.tab
file. My question is why it seems to identify a complete CRISPR/Cas locus when it doesn't find the Cas operon. Interestingly, using Bakta to annotate this asolate, it identifies the Cas genes very close to the CRISPR array (less than 5000 nucleotides away and on the same contig). It seems that CCTyper recognizes that the CRISPR/Cas system is complete, but it doesn't display this operon. What could be happening? Thanks in advance!
