Inside out: Pathogen control by “No-self” treatment

DNA is known as the molecule that carries the instructions necessary for cell functioning and genetic inheritance. Recently, we discovered a new function for extracellular DNA: pathogen control. After fragmenting DNA into smaller molecules, they can inhibit specific species from a range of organisms. This video explains the background of the “No-self” treatment and how this treatment could help us in the fight against antimicrobial resistance.
