Reporting in Science, Srinivas and colleagues now present the discovery of a new family of antibiotics with high specificity for Pseudomonas aeruginosa, infections of which pose a serious problem ...
DEV infects and lyses Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteria, an opportunistic pathogen in cystic fibrosis and other diseases. DEV is part of an experimental phage cocktail developed to eradicate P.
Researchers describe the full molecular structure of the phage DEV. DEV infects and lyses Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteria, an opportunistic pathogen in cystic fibrosis and other diseases.
In step one, as a single DEV phage drifts in isolation, its flexible long tail fibers fluctuate to improve the chance of touching a Pseudomonas lipopolysaccharide surface molecule. After the first ...
