Abstract excerpt
An inhibitor of Streptococcus sobrinus endodextranase was detected in the extracellular fractions of UAB66 mutants identified following ethyl methanesulfonate mutagenesis as either devoid of dextranase activity (Dex-) or overproducing water-soluble glucan. The two groups of mutants had the same p...
