Prophage landscape in Enterococcus faecium: diversity, resistance genes, virulence factors, and endolysin profiling.

BMC genomics - 28 Oct 2025

Wang Zhiqian, Gao Shuo, Zhang Yan, Shen Han, Cao Xiaoli

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Enterococcus faecium is a major opportunistic pathogen associated with healthcare-associated infections and increasing antimicrobial resistance. Prophages play critical roles in bacterial evolution by mediating horizontal gene transfer, but a comprehensive analysis of prophages in E. faecium has not been performed. METHODS: A total of 495 complete E. faecium genomes were retrieved from the NCBI...
