All bacteriophages are composed of a nucleic acid molecule that is surrounded by a protein structure. A bacteriophage attaches itself to a susceptible bacterium and infects the host cell.

Cytophage has developed a versatile bacteriophage-based antibacterial ... attachment and other functions, through targeted manipulation of its genes (Fig. 1). Importantly, the engineered phages ...

In addition, we use other complementary methods such as X-ray crystallography and biochemistry to help connect the path from structure to function. Our recent research focuses on human pathogenic ...
