Comparison of glucan-binding proteins in cariogenicity of Streptococcus mutans.

Oral microbiology and immunology - 1 Feb 2007

Matsumoto-Nakano M, Fujita K, Ooshima T

Abstract excerpt

Streptococcus mutans has been implicated as a primary causative agent of dental caries in humans. Bacterial components associated with the adhesion phase of S. mutans include cell-associated and cell-free glucosyltransferases (GTFs), as well as protein antigen c and proteins that bind glucan. At least four types of S. mutans glucan-binding protein (Gbp) have been identified; GbpA, GbpB, GbpC and GbpD. In the...
