Caries-Associated Biosynthetic Gene Clusters in Streptococcus mutans
16 Apr 2020
Abstract excerpt
Early childhood caries (ECC) is a chronic disease affecting the oral health of children globally. This disease is multifactorial, but a primary factor is cariogenic microorganisms such as Streptococcus mutans. Biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) encode small molecules with diverse biological activities that influence the development of many microbial diseases, including caries. The purpose of this study was to...
