CRISPRtrack

CRISPRtrack uses CRISPR spacers as molecular markers to track bacterial strains.
It can be used to estimate the microbiome similarity based on the sharing of CRISPR spacer contents between the microbiomes. It can also be used to quantify the retention of donor strains in recipients that receive microbiota transfer treatment (such as fecal microbiota transfer, FMT) using microbiome data.
