Building a collection of phage-derived capsular depolymerases to tackle relevant A. baumannii capsular types

A. baumannii is the major cause of nosocomial and drug-resistant infections, its capsule representing a major virulence factor. This pathogen evolved to display a high variety of capsular types for evading host defenses and protecting themselves from predators. Some bacteriophages also evolved to pr...
