Investigating Bdellovibrio predation: novel isolates and bioinformatics studies of predatory enzymes

Bdellovibrio are predatory bacteria that replicate within the periplasm of their Gram-negative bacterial prey. They exhibit a biphasic lifestyle existing as free-swimming cells and inter-periplasmic growing cells. There is great interest in Bdellovibrio spp. due to their potential as antibacterial t...
