Abstract excerpt

Porphyromonas gingivalis fimbriae are critical for the promotion of bacterial infection. The fimA gene encoding fimbrillin, a subunit of fimbriae, has been classified into five genotypes (types I to V) based on their nucleotide sequences. Using a fimA type-specific PCR assay, our previous study demonstrated a close relationship between P. gingivalis possessing type II and type IV fimA genes and adult...
