Cryo-electron microscopy structure of Jabs, a bacteriophage infecting the multidrug-resistant pathogen Mycobacterium abscessus

Exploring bacteriophage structural diversity is essential for understanding phage biology and for advancing phage-based therapies.

Exploring bacteriophage structural diversity is essential for understanding phage biology and for advancing phage-based therapies. Here, we determine the cryo-electron microscopy structure of Jabs, providing, to our knowledge, the first high-resolution view of a phage infecting…
