Prevalent Gut Phages Encode Modular Adhesins Mediating Epithelial Binding and Endoplasmic Reticulum Trafficking
2026-02-02
Abstract excerpt
Bacteriophages are crucial components of the human microbiome and hold promise as therapeutic agents. Yet, their physical interactions with mammalian cells remain poorly understood. Here, we developed a high-throughput platform to identify phages that adhere to epithelial layers and the proteins that mediate this interaction. The identified phages encode immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domain-containing proteins that, wh...
