Characterization of a quinol peroxidase mutant in Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans.

FEMS microbiology letters - 1 Sept 2008

Takashima Eizo, Konishi Kiyoshi

Abstract excerpt

Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans is an oral pathogen causing localized aggressive periodontitis (LAP). Recently, we characterized for the first time a quinol peroxidase (QPO) that catalyzes peroxidase activity using quinol in the respiratory chain of A. actinomycetemcomitans for the reduction of hydrogen peroxide. In the present study, we characterized the phenotype of a QPO null mutant. The QPO null mutant...
