This project investigates the role of bacteriophages in horizontal gene transfer within the human microbiome, focusing on their impact on microbial evolution and the spread of antibiotic resistance. It employs advanced sequencing and experimental models to explore how phages facilitate genetic exchange among gut bacter…
Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) is one of the primary forces driving rapid adaptation and long term evolution of complex microbial communities such as the human microbiome.
The same process is involved in the dissemination of virulence and antimicrobial resistance genes and emergence of “superbugs”.
The precise mechanisms and role of HGT in the structure and function of the microbiome remain largely unexplored.Bacteriophages are ubiquitous and highly abundant members of the human microbiome, acco…
