Discovery, structural characteristics and evolutionary analyses of functional domains in Acinetobacter baumannii phage tail fiber/spike proteins
This research deepens the understanding of the relationship between A. baumannii phage genera and the functional domains within their tail fiber/spike proteins, emphasizing the compatibility between structural characteristics and functional roles. The data obtained could serve as a reference for the targeted modification of phages or their tail fiber/spike proteins, enhancing their therapeutic applications.
