This plasmid can be used for precise CRISPR/Cas9-mediated genome engineering of Streptomyces strains. To our knowledge it has been successfully used in S. albidoflavus, S. coelicolor, S. formicae, S. lividans and S. venezuelae. Mutations have ranged from 1-100kbp deletions, precise codon changes to alter amino acids and insertions to add Flag-tags to proteins encoded at their native loci.
