R-pyocins, phage tail-like complexes, act as highly specific weapons against susceptible strains. Their non-replicative and potent nature makes them a prime candidate for next-generation antimicrobials against drug-resistant infections!

Microbial Primer: The R-pyocins of Pseudomonas aeruginosa
R-pyocins are phage tail-like protein complexes produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa that deliver a single, lethal hit by depolarizing the target cell membrane. Unlike phages, R-pyocins lack capsids and...
