Transcriptional Profiling Reveals the Importance of RcrR in the Regulation of Multiple Sugar Transportation and Biofilm Formation in Streptococcus mutans

24 Aug 2021

Abstract excerpt

The human oral cavity is a constantly changing environment. Tooth decay is a commonly prevalent chronic disease mainly caused by the cariogenic bacterium Streptococcus mutans. S. mutans is an oral pathogen that metabolizes various carbohydrates into extracellular polysaccharides (EPSs), biofilm, and tooth-destroying lactic acid. The host diet strongly influences the availability of multiple carbohydrates. Here,...
