This project investigates the role of bacteriophages in bacterial evolution and their potential for metabolic engineering. By analyzing phage genomes and their interactions with host bacteria, it seeks to enhance microbial production of valuable compounds.
Phages, viruses that prey on bacteria, are the most abundant and diverse inhabitants of the Earth.
Temperate bacteriophages are able to integrate into the host genome and maintain as prophages a long-term association with their host.
Illustrated by the development of mutually beneficial traits, this close interaction between host and virus has significantly shaped bacterial evolution.
However, the immense genetic resources of phage genomes still remain almost unexplored.
For the transition to a…
