Prophages divert Staphylococcus aureus defenses against host lipids

Phages are ubiquitous in bacteria, including clinical Staphylococcus aureus, where Sfi 21/Sa3 phages often integrate into the hlb gene, which encodes Hlb sphingomyelinase. This integration acts as a rapid regulatory switch for Hlb production. Our findings suggest that Sfi 21/Sa3 prophages and Hlb ac...
