Investigating predation by the predatory bacterium Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus at the interface between predatory bacteria, pathogenic prey, and the host immune response

Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus is a Gram-negative predatory bacterium that is able to prey upon and kill other Gram-negative bacteria, including bacterial pathogens that are resistant to antibiotic treatment. This suggests that B. bacteriovorus, or components of its predatory lifecycle, may be of great...
