Phage-mediated resolution of genetic conflict alters the evolutionary trajectory of <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i> lysogens
2023-10-26
Abstract excerpt
The opportunistic human pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa is naturally infected by a large class of temperate, transposable, Mu-like phages. We examined the genotypic and phenotypic diversity of P. aeruginosa PA14 populations as they resolve CRISPR autoimmunity, mediated by an imperfect CRISPR match to the Mu-like DMS3 prophage, and show that lysogen evolution is profoundly impacted by CRISPR autoimmunity and phag...
