A broad-spectrum phage-encoded mechanism to disarm bacterial type IV filaments

Nathan A. Roberge, Paankhi Dave, Véronique L. Taylor…·Lori L. Burrows

This paper identifies Aqs1, a phage-encoded protein that inhibits type IV pilus function in multiple Gram-negative bacteria by targeting the PilB ATPase.
