Isolation and chacterisation of Klebsiella phages for phage therapy

E. Townsend, L. Kelly, L. Gannon, G. Muscatt, R. Dunstan, S. Michniewski, H. Sapkota, S. J. Kiljunen, A. Kolsi, M. Skurnik, T. Lithgow, A. D. MIllard, E. Jameson

This study isolates and characterizes 30 novel Klebsiella phages, finding that lytic phages are most suitable for therapy but single phages are insufficient due to rapid resistance development.

T. Seecharran, L. Karin-Mantarri, K. Koskela, S. Nikari, B. Dickins, J. Corander, M. Skurnik, A. McNally

The paper analyzes global Yersinia pseudotuberculosis genomes to show phylogeographic splits and lineage formation driven by CRISPR clusters, with limited genetic exchange between lineages.
