Identification of independent Streptococcus gordonii SspA and SspB functions in coaggregation with Actinomyces naeslundii.

Infection and immunity - 1 Dec 2001

Egland P G, Dû L D, Kolenbrander P E

Abstract excerpt

The initial stages of dental plaque formation involve the adherence of early colonizing organisms such as Streptococcus gordonii and Actinomyces naeslundii to the saliva-coated tooth surface and to each other. The S. gordonii surface proteins SspA and SspB are known to play a role in adherence to salivary proteins and mediate coaggregation with other bacteria. Coaggregation is the adhesin receptor-mediated...
