<i>mucG, mucH</i> , and <i>mucI</i> modulate production of mutanocyclin and reutericyclins in <i>Streptococcus mutans</i> B04Sm5
2022-01-28
Abstract excerpt
Streptococcus mutans is considered a primary etiologic agent of dental caries, which is the most common chronic infectious disease worldwide. S. mutans B04Sm5 was recently shown to produce reutericyclins and mutanocyclin through the muc biosynthetic gene cluster, and to utilize reutericyclins to inhibit the growth of neighboring commensal Streptococci. In this study, examination of S. mutans and muc phylogeny...
