Transposable element insertions into the escherichia coli polysialic acid gene cluster result in resistance to the k1f bacteriophage

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: Kathryn M. Styles and colleagues from the SchoolUniversity of Warwick, Coventry, United Kingdom have published the research: Transposable Element Insertions into the Escherichia coli Polysialic Acid Gene Cluster Result in Resistance to the K1F Bacteriophage, in the Journal: (JOURNAL) of 16/05/2022
• what: This study shows how the natural development of resistances to the K1F a phage which targets the K1 capsule of pathogenic Escherichia coli can come about through insertion sequences (IS). In this study, bacteriophage-resistant EV36 isolates were collected and characterized, through the investigation of relative growth and fitness, as . . .
