CRISPR spacers in S. thermophilus strain NWC_1_1 and the S. thermophilus phage genome. Three CRISPR arrays (open arrows) and their flanking Cas genes are shown in the genome of strain S. thermophilus NWC_1_1 (top). CRISPR arrays 1 and 3 have matching spacers with the phage, as shown in the zoomed regions of the ~ 40 kb phage genome along with the annotation of selected phage protein-coding genes (bottom)
