Deletion of competence genes represses expression of genes associated with anaerobic respiration/metabolism in <i>Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans</i>

2023-05-18

Abstract excerpt

Biofilm formation contributes to the virulence of various pathogens, as the extracellular polymer matrix provides protection against the host immune defense and antimicrobial drugs. Biofilm- associated diseases often become chronic and recurring. The periodontal pathogen Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans , which resides in a multispecies biofilm in the subgingival pocket, produces multiple virulence factors t...
