A guide to the ecological limitations of phage therapy of bacterial biofilms: Is what's best for the phage best for the physician?

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Bacteriophages—viruses that kill bacteria—are promising weapons against bacterial biofilms: sessile communities notoriously resistant to antibiotics. Yet phages evolved not so much to eradicate bacteria as to obtain new bacteria to infect. That goal, however, may conflict with the physician's objective of complete bacterial clearance.

Designing a Phage Cocktail for V. cholerae O139

open access: yes, 2023
Antibiotic resistance has become a crucial and increasingly common concern in the treatment of bacterial diseases. Research has additionally shown the deleterious effects of broad-use antibiotics on the human gut microbiome, which lead to illness caused ...

Designing phage cocktails to combat the emergence of bacteriophage-resistant mutants in multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum
Phage therapy, an emerging strategy in the fight against recalcitrant bacterial infections, encounters a significant hurdle posed by the development of phage-resistant bacterial strains. To address this concern, we suggest a novel phage cocktail.

A Lambda Red Recombinase‐Assisted CRISPR/Cas9 System for Efficient and Precise Genome Editing in Agrobacterium tumefaciens

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Agrobacterium tumefaciens is a powerful delivery tool for plant genetic transformation and a pivotal platform for agricultural biotechnology. However, laboratory strains of Agrobacterium have remained genetically unoptimized for decades, with genome engineering hindered by inefficient, endogenous homologous recombination systems.
