Intestinal cues driving prophage induction in the microbiota are largely unknown. In this issue of Cell Host & Microbe, Oh et al. (2018) reveal that dietary fructose- and microbiota-derived short-chain fatty acids promote AckA-mediated acetic acid biosynthesis, triggering a stress response that facilities phage production.
肠道线索在很大程度上驱动了微生物群中的噬菌体诱导,但目前尚不清楚这些肠道线索是什么。在本期《细胞宿主与微生物》中,Oh 等人揭示了饮食中的果糖和微生物衍生的短链脂肪酸促进 AckA 介导的乙酸生物合成,触发了有利于噬菌体产生的应激反应。
