Guide RNA (gRNA) target for RFP
This part is a guide RNA (gRNA) that targets RFP, when bound to Cas9. It also contains a cleavage site recognized by the Csy4 enzyme which allows it to be cleaved from neighboring DNA/RNA.

Usage and Biology
In both of our projects, we used gRNAs and dCas9 as: 1) To specifically target and repress the "virulence gene" (we used flourescent proteins as a proof of concept) in our conjugation project 2) Improve past circuits with better decision making by using dCas9 instead of traditional repressors.
