fimA genotypes and multilocus sequence types of Porphyromonas gingivalis from patients with periodontitis.

Journal of clinical microbiology - 1 Jan 2008

Abstract excerpt

Fimbriae are important virulence factors of pathogenic bacteria, facilitating their attachment to host and bacterial cells. In the periodontal pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis, the fimA gene is classified into six types (genotypes I, Ib, II, III, IV, and V) on the basis of different nucleotide sequences, with fimA genotypes II and IV being prevalent in isolates from patients with periodontitis. The aims of this...
