This project explores the role of viruses, specifically phages, in the human microbiome and their impact on health. It aims to identify small molecules that can modulate phage activity, potentially leading to new treatments for infections linked to microbial pathogens.
The human microbiome has been increasingly in the focus of research for its importance in human health and disease.
Yet, the viruses (phages) infecting these microbiota have gained much less attention.
The majority of phages reside integrated in the genomes of their microbial hosts as so called lysogenic prophages.
Often, these prophages encode important toxins and other virulence related factors that, while they are beneficial to their microbial hosts, may be detrimental for the infected human.…
