As antibiotic-resistant infections rise and are projected to cause up to 10 million deaths per year by 2050, scientists are looking to bacteriophages, viruses that infect bacteria, as an alternative.
Scientists at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem have revealed that bacteriophages use a small RNA molecule to hijack bacterial cells, a mechanism that had never been described before. A tiny viral ...
