Predicting bacteriophage hosts based on sequences of annotated receptor-binding proteins
Abstract Nowadays, bacteriophages are increasingly considered as an alternative treatment for a variety of bacterial infections in cases where classical antibiotics have become ineffective. However, characterizing the host specificity of phages remains a labor- and time-intensive process. In order t...
