Analysing Parallel Strategies to Alter the Host Specificity of Bacteriophage T7
The recognition and binding of host bacteria by bacteriophages is most often enabled by a highly specific receptor–ligand type of interaction, with the receptor-binding proteins (RBPs) of phages being the primary determinants of host specificity. Specifically modifying the RBPs could alter or extend...
