2025-11-19
Abstract excerpt
Porphyromonas gingivalis is one of the major bacterial pathogens responsible for the initiation and progression of periodontal disease. The bacterium codes for multiple TonB-dependent receptors required for acquisition of nutrients such as heme and vitamin B12, although the identity of a TonB energy transducer has yet to be identified. Here we identify a potential TonB protein encoded by PG0785, generate a deficie...
