Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods for increasing observed editing rates in the surviving bacteria cells. The compositions and methods presented herein in combination lead to a phenomenon of “edit or die.” Although less cells survive plating and editing, a large percentage of cells that do survive are multiple editors. In one experiment it was found that if a cell survives transformation, plating, and editing, 75% of the surviving cells are multiple editors; that is, 75% of the surviving cells were simultaneously edited with edits at two or more different locations within the bacterial genome.
