A Biological Inventory of Prophages in <i>A. baumannii</i> Genomes Reveal Distinct Distributions in Classes, Length and Genomic Positions

2020-10-26

Abstract excerpt

Acinetobacter baumannii is of major clinical importance as the bacterial pathogen often causes hospital acquired infections, further complicated by the high prevalence of antibiotic resistant strains. Aside from natural tolerance to certain antibiotic classes, resistance is often acquired by the exchange of genetic information via conjugation but also by the high natural competence exhibited by A. baumannii . In...
