Small siphophage binding to an open state of the LptDE outer membrane lipopolysaccharide translocon
2025-07-07
Abstract excerpt
Bacteriophages are bacterial viruses that provide alternatives to small-molecule drugs to combat infections by antibiotic-resistant bacteria. To infect a bacterial host, a phage needs to bind to the bacterial surface via receptor binding proteins (RBPs), which are critical for determining host specificity. For functionally important receptors, the RBP-receptor interaction could be exploited via phage steering, whe...
