Immunogenicity and protective immunity induced by synthetic peptides associated with a catalytic subdomain of mutans group streptococcal glucosyltransferase.

Infection and immunity - 1 Nov 1997

Abstract excerpt

We examined the immunogenicity and induction of protective immunity of two 19-mer sequences (GGY and AND) which overlapped a highly conserved region which has recently been implicated in the enzymatic activity of glucosyltransferases (GTFs) of the mutans group streptococci. These peptides were synthesized as eight-branched constructs on a lysine core. Serum immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibody, induced by subcutaneous...
