Explore a 20-minute webinar presented by Hannah Ledvina, PhD, a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Colorado Boulder, on how functional amyloids provide defense against predatory bacteria. Delve into the fascinating world of Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus, a predatory bacterium that invades and consumes Gram-negative bacteria. Learn about its infectious life cycle, which resembles that of bacteriophages, as it infiltrates the prey-cell periplasm, depletes host nutrients for replication, and ultimately lyses the infected cell. Gain insights into Dr. Ledvina's research on bacterial immune systems and the role of functional amyloids in defending against these predatory bacteria.
