BACKGROUND: Streptococcus mutans is a major pathogen responsible for dental caries. Arginine is a promising potential caries preventive agent which can inhibit the growth of S. mutans. However, the mechanism whereby arginine inhibits S. mutans growth r...

Extracellular membrane vesicles (EMVs) are produced by many Gram-positive organisms, but information regarding vesiculogenesis is incomplete. We used single gene deletions to evaluate the impacts on Streptococcus mutans EMV biogenesis of Sortase A (SrtA), which affects S. mutans...

We systematically investigated RcrR's contribution to cariogenic virulence using isogenic wild-type, DeltarcrR deletion mutant, and complemented strains. We assessed bacterial growth, biofilm architecture, acid tolerance, and H+-ATPase activity. To delineate the global regulatory network, we inte...

Global transcriptional analysis of acid-inducible genes in Streptococcus mutans: multiple two-component systems involved in acid adaptation pH is a major environmental factor that regulates gene expression in many bacteria. Streptococcus mutans in dental biofilms is regularly exposed to cycles of a...
ORGANISM(S): Streptococcus mutans 
This project investigates the changes in proteome profiles that occurred in the same set of S. mutans wild-type and lrgAB mutant samples used in our recently published RNA-seq study. To this end, mass spectrometry-based label-free quantitative proteomics, a technology known to enable comprehensive i...

Transcriptional profiling to investigate the regulatory roles of SpxA and SpxB of S. mutans. RNA was extracted from four replicate samples of each strain of interest (spxA mutant, spxB mutant, spxAB double-mutant, UA159 wild type) and labeled with Cy3. For each replicate, labeled RNA was hybridized...

Extracellular membrane vesicles (EMVs) are produced by many Gram-positive organisms, but information regarding vesiculogenesis is largely unknown. In this study, we isolated and characterized EMVs derived from the oral pathogen Streptococcus mutans and two deletion mutants, ΔsrtA and Δsfp. ΔsrtA E...

Transcriptional profiling of the competence-stimulating peptide (CSP) response in Streptococcus mutans of FACS-separated subpopulations and mixed cells of a clonal culture. CSP-mediated competence development in S. mutans is a transient and biphasic process since only a subpopulation induces expres...
ORGANISM(S): Streptococcus mutans 
Childhood caries is an extremely common childhood chronic disease, affecting 60–90% of children in industrialized countries. It results in lesions in both the primary and permanent dentitions, hospitalizations and emergency room visits, high treatment costs, loss of school days, diminished ability t...
