Alterations in gp37 Expand the Host Range of a T4-Like Phage

23 Sept 2017

Abstract excerpt

ABSTRACT The use of phages as antibacterial agents is limited by their generally narrow host ranges. The aim of this study was to make a T4-like phage, WG01, obtain the host range of another T4-like phage, QL01, by replacing its host-determinant gene region with that of QL01. This process triggered a direct expansion of the WG01 host range. The offspring of WG01 obtained the host ranges of both QL01 and WG01, as...
