LicD-Mediated Cell Wall Decoration Governs Phage Sensitivity in Enterococcus faecalis Clinical Isolates

2025-05-13

Abstract excerpt

Enterococcus faecalis has emerged as a prevalent antibiotic-resistant pathogen in clinical settings. Herein, we report the identification of three novel lytic phages targeting vancomycin-resistant E. faecalis . While the isolated phages all belonged to the Kochikohdavirus genus, there were distinctive differences in their tail fibre proteins, affecting their adsorption. The phages showed strong antibacterial act...
