Multiple phase-variable mechanisms, including capsular polysaccharides, modify bacteriophage susceptibility in <i>Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron</i>

2019-01-15

Abstract excerpt

A variety of cell surface structures, including capsular polysaccharides (CPS), dictate interactions between bacteria and their environment including their viruses (bacteriophages). Members of the prominent human gut Bacteroidetes characteristically produce several phase-variable CPS, but their contributions to bacteriophage interactions are unknown. We used engineered strains of the human symbiont Bacteroides th...
