Bacteriophage adherence to mucus mediates preventive protection against pathogenic bacteria

2019-03-28

Abstract excerpt

Metazoan mucosal surfaces are major interfaces between the organism and environment. These surfaces have been proposed to host bacteriophages in a symbiotic relationship with metazoans. Considering the so far poorly understood phage–mucus interaction and its role in ecological interactions and for mucosal bacterial infections, empirical evidence and model systems need to be established. Here, using the fish pathog...
