Role of bacteriocin immunity proteins in the antimicrobial sensitivity of Streptococcus mutans.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Dec 2006

Matsumoto-Nakano Michiyo, Kuramitsu Howard K

Abstract excerpt

Bacteria utilize quorum-sensing systems to modulate environmental stress responses. The quorum-sensing system of Streptococcus mutans is mediated by the competence-stimulating peptide (CSP), whose precursor is encoded by the comC gene. A comC mutant of strain GS5 exhibited enhanced antimicrobial sensitivity to a wide variety of different agents. Since the addition of exogenous CSP did not complement this...
