Biological functions of glucan-binding protein B of Streptococcus mutans.

Oral microbiology and immunology - 1 Oct 2007

Abstract excerpt

INTRODUCTION: Streptococcus mutans has been implicated as a major causative agent of dental caries in humans. Bacterial components associated with the adhesion phase of S. mutans include glucosyltransferases, protein antigen C and proteins that bind glucan. At least four glucan-binding proteins (Gbp) have been identified; GbpA, GbpB, GbpC and GbpD. METHODS: In our previous study, the contributions of GbpA and...
