Investigating novel Streptomyces bacteriophage endolysins as potential antimicrobial agents
ABSTRACT As antibiotic resistance has become a major global threat, the World Health Organization (WHO) has urgently called for alternative strategies for control of bacterial infections. Endolysin, a phage-encoded protein, can degrade bacterial peptidoglycan (PG) and disrupt bacterial growth. Accor...
