Genomic analysis of <i>Acinetobacter baumannii</i> prophages reveals remarkable diversity and suggests profound impact on bacterial virulence and fitness

2018-03-23

Abstract excerpt

The recent nomination by the World Health Organization of Acinetobacter baumannii as the number one priority pathogen for the development of new antibiotics is a direct consequence of its fast evolution of pathogenicity, and in particular of multidrug resistance. While the development of new antibiotics is critical, understanding the mechanisms behind the crescent bacterial pathogenicity is equally relevant. Ofte...
