Involvement of arginine-specific cysteine proteinase (Arg-gingipain) in fimbriation of Porphyromonas gingivalis.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 May 1996

Nakayama K, Yoshimura F, Kadowaki T, Yamamoto K

Abstract excerpt

Arginine-specific cysteine proteinase (Arg-gingipain [RGP], a major proteinase secreted from the oral anaerobic bacterium Porphyromonas gingivalis, is encoded by two separate genes (rgpA and rgpB) on the P. gingivalis chromosome and widely implicated as an important virulence factor in the pathogenesis of periodontal disease (K. Nakayama, T. Kadowaki, K. Okamoto, and K. Yamamoto, J. Biol. Chem. 270:23619-23626,...
