Bacteriophage resistance alters antibiotic mediated intestinal expansion of enterococci

2019-01-26

Abstract excerpt

Enterococcus faecalis is a human intestinal pathobiont with intrinsic and acquired resistance to many antibiotics, including vancomycin. Nature provides a diverse and virtually untapped repertoire of bacterial viruses, or bacteriophages (phages), that could be harnessed to combat multi-drug resistant enterococcal infections. Bacterial phage resistance represents a potential barrier to the implementation of phage t...
