Genes influencing phage host range in <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> on a species-wide scale
2020-07-25
Abstract excerpt
Staphylococcus aureus is a human pathogen that causes serious diseases ranging from skin infections to septic shock. Bacteriophages ("phages") are both natural killers of S. aureus , offering therapeutic possibilities, as well as important vectors of horizontal gene transfer in the species. Here, we used high-throughput approaches to understand the genetic basis of strain-to-strain variation in sensitivity to pha...
