Loss of function mutations in epaR confer resistance to phage NPV1 infection in Enterococcus faecalis OG1RF
K. Ho, W. Huo, S. Pas, R. Dao, K. Palmer
This study identifies loss-of-function mutations in epaR as conferring resistance to phage NPV1 in E. faecalis OG1RF by blocking phage adsorption, but these mutations also increase susceptibility to daptomycin and osmotic stress.
