<i>Fusobacterium nucleatum</i> metabolically integrates commensals and pathogens in oral biofilms
2021-06-23
Abstract excerpt
Fusobacterium nucleatum is a common constituent of the oral microbiota in both periodontal health and disease. Previously, we discovered ornithine cross-feeding between F. nucleatum and Streptococcus gordonii , where S. gordonii secretes ornithine via an arginine-ornithine antiporter (ArcD), which in turn supports the growth and biofilm development of F. nucleatum ; however, broader metabolic aspects of F. nu...
