Molecular and clinical analyses of the gene encoding the collagen-binding adhesin of Streptococcus mutans

9 Mar 2009

Abstract excerpt

Streptococcus mutans is a known pathogen of dental caries and its major cell surface antigens have been widely investigated. Recently, an approximately 120 kDa Cnm protein with binding properties to type I collagen was identified, and its encoding gene (cnm) cloned and sequenced. In the present study, we sequenced cnm from 47 different clinical S. mutans strains and found that the nucleotide alignment of the...
