Engineered superinfective Pf phage prevents dissemination of <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i> in a mouse burn model
2022-12-08
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Pf is a filamentous bacteriophage integrated in the chromosome of most clinical isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa . Under stress conditions, mutations occurring in the Pf genome result in the emergence of super-infective variants of Pf (SI-Pf) that are capable of circumventing phage immunity; therefore SI-Pf can even infect Pf-lysogenized P. aeruginosa . Herein, we identified specific mutatio...
