Comparative genomics of <i>Acinetobacter baumannii</i> and therapeutic bacteriophages from a patient undergoing phage therapy

2021-12-16

Abstract excerpt

In 2016, a 68-year-old patient with a disseminated multi-drug resistant Acinetobacter baumannii infection was treated using lytic bacteriophages in one of the first modern human clinical uses of phage therapy in the United States. Due to the emergency nature of the treatment there was little time to thoroughly characterize the phages used in this intervention or the pathogen itself. Here we report the genomes of...
