The N-terminal end of Cse1 is also at the tail and the C-terminal end contains a bundle of 4 helices that contact Cse2.2. The Cse2 dimer, Cas7 filament, and four-helix bundle of Cse1 form a groove immediately next to guide region of the crRNA. This is where the ssDNA target fits into the complex <ref name='four'/>.
