Genes involved in the repression of mutacin I production in Streptococcus mutans.

Microbiology (Reading, England) - 1 Feb 2009

Abstract excerpt

Streptococcus mutans is considered a primary pathogen for human dental caries. Its ability to produce a variety of peptide antibiotics called mutacins may play an important role in its invasion and establishment in the dental biofilm. S. mutans strain UA140 produces two types of mutacins, the lan...
