Technologies for generating superphages and optimizing phage cocktails are poised to overcome antibiotic resistance and ...

With antibiotics losing their effectiveness, one company is turning to gene editing and bacteriophages—viruses that infect bacteria—to combat infections.

Viruses called bacteriophages, or phages, target bacteria but can’t infect humans or other higher organisms. Phages inject ...

CRISPR systems in general act as "molecular scissors" by cutting DNA into pieces, be it in a lab-based setting or, in nature, inside a bacterium to destroy a phage. Essentially, they are a ...
