Characterization of the Treponema denticola Virulence Factor Dentilisin.

Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.) - 1 Jan 2021

Kikuchi Yuichiro, Ishihara Kazuyuki

Abstract excerpt

Treponema denticola is a potent periodontal pathogen that forms a red complex with Porphyromonas gingivalis and Tannerella forsythia. It has many virulence factors, yet there are only a few reports detailing these factors. Among them, dentilisin is a well-documented surface protease. Dentilisin is reported to be involved in nutrient uptake, bacterial coaggregation, complement activation, evasion of the host...
