Fluoride export is required for competitive fitness of pathogenic microorganisms in dental biofilm models

2024-01-18

Abstract excerpt

Microorganisms resist fluoride toxicity using fluoride export proteins from one of several different molecular families. Cariogenic species Streptococcus mutans and Candida albicans extrude intracellular fluoride using a CLC F F − /H + antiporter and FEX fluoride channel, respectively, whereas commensal eubacteria, such as Streptococcus gordonii, export fluoride using a Fluc fluoride channel. In this work, w...
