Sequence analysis of kgp in Porphyromonas gingivalis isolates from periodontitis patients.

Oral microbiology and immunology - 1 Dec 2003

Beikler T, Peters U, Ehmke B, Flemmig T F

Abstract excerpt

The aim of the present study was to determine sequence variation in the Lys-x-specific protease (Kgp) encoding gene kgp of Porphyromonas gingivalis and to analyze its association with periodontal disease severity. Pooled subgingival plaque samples were obtained from the six most severely affected sites of 102 patients with periodontitis. Sequence analysis of the kgp gene in 23 clinical P. gingivalis isolates...
