Accumulation of defense systems in phage resistant strains of <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i>
2022-08-12
Abstract excerpt
Prokaryotes encode multiple distinct anti-phage defense systems in their genomes. However, the impact of carrying a multitude of defense systems on phage resistance remains unclear, especially in a clinical context. Using a collection of antibiotic-resistant clinical strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and a broad panel of phages, we demonstrate that defense systems contribute substantially to defining phage host r...
