Identification of hydrogen peroxide production-related genes in Streptococcus sanguinis and their functional relationship with pyruvate oxidase.

Microbiology (Reading, England) - 1 Jan 2011

Abstract excerpt

Hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)), an important substance produced by many members of the genus Streptococcus, plays important roles in virulence and antagonism within a microbial community such as oral biofilms. The spxB gene, which encodes pyruvate oxidase, is involved in H(2)O(2) production in many streptococcal species. However, knowledge about its regulation and relation with other genes putatively involved in...
