The C lostridium difficile cell wall protein CwpV confers phase‐variable phage resistance
Bacteriophages are present in virtually all ecosystems, and bacteria have developed multiple antiphage strategies to counter their attacks. C lostridium difficile is an important pathogen causing severe intestinal infections in humans and animals. Here we show that the conserved cell‐surface protein...
