Diversity-Generation and Variable Protein Displays in Pathogens and Phage
Description: Our studies will contribute to an understanding of a newly discovered mechanism that is widely used by bacteria and bacteriophage to generate massive amounts of protein diversity to accelerate the evolution of adaptive traits. Our proposed experiments involve important pathogens belonging to the Bordetella and Legionella genera.
