A 60-Kilodalton Immunodominant Glycoprotein Is Essential for Cell Wall Integrity and the Maintenance of Cell Shape in Streptococcus mutans

1 Nov 2001

Abstract excerpt

We have demonstrated previously by Western blotting that in naturally sensitized humans, the serum or salivary antibody response to Streptococcus mutans was directed predominantly to a protein antigen with a size of approximately 60-kDa. To identify this immunodominant antigen, specific serum antibodies were eluted from immunoblots and five positive clones with inserts ranging in length from 3 to 8 kb from...
