Phages adapt to recognize an O-antigen polysaccharide site by mutating the “backup” tail protein ORF59, enabling reinfection of phage-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae
Phages demonstrate remarkable promise as antimicrobial agents against antibiotic-resistant bacteria. However, the emergence of phage-resistant strains poses challenges to their effective application. In this paper, we presented the isolation of a phage adaptive mutant that demonstrated enhanced and...
