Outer membrane changes enable evolutionary escape from bacterial predation
2024-09-28
Abstract excerpt
To combat antimicrobial resistant pathogens, natural predatory bacteria, like Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus , represent potential alternatives. B. bacteriovorus could be particularly potent as it kills a broad range of human bacterial pathogens, however, it remains unclear whether prey can evolve genetically-determined resistance against predation. Here, we show that the model bacterium Escherichia coli K-12 consi...
