Phage therapy is emerging as a promising strategy against the growing threat of antimicrobial resistance, yet phage and bacteria are incredibly diverse and idiosyncratic in their interactions with one another. Clinical applications of phage therapy o...
Bacteriophages, or bacterial viruses, play diverse ecological roles by shaping bacterial populations and also hold significant biotechnological and medical potential, including the treatment of infections caused by multidrug-resistant bacteria. The d...
Bacteriophages (phages) are the most predominant and genetically diverse biological entities on Earth. Phages are viruses that infect bacteria and encode numerous proteins with potential biotechnological application. However, most phage-encoded prote...

The rapid rise of antibiotic resistance and slow discovery of new antibiotics have threatened global health. While novel phage lysins have emerged as potential antibacterial agents, experimental screening methods for novel lysins pose significant cha...
BACKGROUND: Microbial secondary metabolites play a crucial role in the intricate interactions within the natural environment. Among these metabolites, ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified peptides (RiPPs) are becoming a promising...
Phages are increasingly considered promising alternatives to target drug-resistant bacterial pathogens. However, their often-narrow host range can make it challenging to find matching phages against bacteria of interest. Current computational tools d...
