Role of the Streptococcus mutans irvA gene in GbpC-independent, dextran-dependent aggregation and biofilm formation.

Applied and environmental microbiology - 1 Nov 2009

Zhu Min, Ajdić Dragana, Liu Yuan, Lynch David, Merritt Justin, Banas Jeffrey A

Abstract excerpt

Dextran-dependent aggregation (DDAG) of Streptococcus mutans is an in vitro phenomenon that is believed to represent a property of the organism that is beneficial for sucrose-dependent biofilm development. GbpC, a cell surface glucan-binding protein, is responsible for DDAG in S. mutans when cult...
