<i>Enterococcus faecium sagA</i> mutants have cell envelope defects influencing antibiotic resistance and bacteriophage susceptibility

2025-07-21

Abstract excerpt

Enterococcus faecium is a Gram-positive bacterium that is resident to the intestines of animals including humans. E. faecium is also an opportunistic pathogen that causes multidrug resistant (MDR) infections. Bacteriophages (phages) have been proposed as therapeutics for the treatment of MDR infections, however, an obstacle for phage therapy is the emergence of phage resistance. Despite this, the development of p...
