Discovery of novel enzybiotic candidates targeting human bacterial pathogens through large-scale viral-host profiling

The rise of antibiotic-resistant bacteria demands alternative therapeutic strategies, with bacteriophage (phage) therapy and phage-derived enzybiotics emerging as promising approaches. However, identifying candidate phages against specific pathogens has historically been a bottleneck due to the need for cultivation methods to assess host range and lytic activity. Advances in metagenomic…
