Construction of a pepO gene-deficient mutant of Porphyromonas gingivalis: potential role of endopeptidase O in the invasion of host cells.

Oral microbiology and immunology - 1 Dec 2003

Ansai T, Yu W, Urnowey S, Barik S, Takehara T

Abstract excerpt

Porphyromonas gingivalis has been isolated from lesions of advanced adult periodontitis, and implicated as a periodontal pathogen. We have previously cloned a novel endopeptidase, designated PepO, from P. gingivalis 381, which exhibited significant homology to human endothelin-converting enzyme (...
