Here's an interesting thought I've been toying with:
-- One of the classical yogurt making bacteria is Streptococcus thermophilus, a close relative of S. pyogenes, which is the source of the canonical Cas9 gene.
Turns out that S. thermophilus has a native Cas9 system. So in theory, all we need to do genome editing in S. thermophilus would be to provide it with an artificial CRISPR casette!
Completely bypasses any IP issues around Cas9 as well... :-)
