Practical challenges for CRISPR-based work in Bifidobacterium include strain variability and low transformation efficiency.
Expanding the genetic toolbox for Bifidobacterium is expected to broaden understanding of the genus and enable development of next-generation probiotics.
Recent advances in genomics and CRISPR-Cas systems provide opportunities for targeted genome modification in Bifidobacterium.
Genetic studies in Bifidobacterium have been limited primarily by the lack of available genome editing tools.
