Predictive phage therapy for Escherichia coli urinary tract infections: cocktail selection for therapy based on machine learning models

This paper uses machine learning to predict effective phage cocktails for treating E. coli urinary tract infections based on bacterial genome data.

Prophage-dependent recombination drives genome structural variation and phenotypic heterogeneity in Escherichia coli O157:H7

This paper shows that prophage-dependent recombination generates structural variants in E. coli O157, leading to phenotypic heterogeneity and adaptation.

A high-throughput genomic screen identifies a role for the plasmid-borne Type II secretion system of Escherichia coli O157:H7 (Sakai) in plant-microbe interactions

A high-throughput genomic screen identifies the plasmid-borne Type II secretion system (T2SS) of E. coli O157:H7 as important for plant-microbe interactions, while a chaperone-usher fimbrial gene cluster is not.

Bacterial flagella disrupt host cell membranes and interact with cytoskeletal components

This study investigates how bacterial flagella from E. coli and Salmonella species interact with host cell membranes and cytoskeletal components, showing membrane disruption and actin polymerization effects.

Resistance to change? The impact of group medication on AMR gene dynamics during commercial pig production

This study tracks AMR gene dynamics in commercial pigs over six months, showing stable resistance gene levels despite antibiotic use and environmental spread.
