Mutants of Streptococcus gordonii Challis over-producing glucosyltransferase.

Journal of general microbiology - 1 Mar 1991

Haisman R J, Jenkinson H F

Abstract excerpt

Two mutants of Streptococcus gordonii which over-produced extracellular polysaccharide when grown on sucrose-containing medium were isolated after mutagenesis of strain Challis with ethyl methanesulphonate. The mutants, designated strains OB20 and OB30, expressed 2.6-fold and 4.7-fold respectively more glucosyltransferase (GTF) activities than the wild-type strain. Transformation experiments suggested that the...
