Characterization of competence and biofilm development of a Streptococcus sanguinis endocarditis isolate.

Molecular oral microbiology - 1 Apr 2011

Zhu L, Zhang Y, Fan J, Herzberg M C, Kreth J

Abstract excerpt

Streptococcus sanguinis is an oral commensal bacterium and endogenous pathogen in the blood, which is generally naturally competent to take up extracellular DNA. Regarded as a stress response, competence development enables S. sanguinis to acquire new genetic material. The sequenced reference strain SK36 encodes and expresses the genes required for competence (com) and uptake of DNA. Isolated from blood cultures...
