Bacteriophage susceptibility in clinical Enterococcus faecalis reflects host genomic background and Epa-associated phage adsorption
Cytolysin-positive Enterococcus faecalis has been implicated as a disease-associated pathobiont in alcohol-associated hepatitis, motivating development of selective bacteriophage-based strategies. However, strain-level determinants of phage susceptibility remain incompletely understood. We characterized the host range of three E. faecalis phages, {Phi}Ef2.1, {Phi}Ef2.2, and {Phi}Ef2.3Ev, across…
