Protein interactions between the oral bacteria <i>Fusobacterium nucleatum</i> and <i>Porphyromonas gingivalis</i> in biofilm and planktonic culture
2020-11-23
Abstract excerpt
The opportunistic pathogens Fusobacterium nucleatum and Porphyromonas gingivalis are Gram-negative bacteria associated with oral biofilm and periodontal disease. Although liquid cultures are often the preferred cultivation method in microbiology, bacterial cells in biofilm adopt a profoundly different phenotype reflecting the close cell-to-cell contact compare to their planktonic counterparts. To investigate F....
