ABSTRACT In the cariogenic Streptococcus mutans, competence development is regulated by the ComRS signaling system comprised of the ComR regulator and the ComS prepeptide to the competence signaling peptide XIP (ComX-inducing peptide). Aside from com

Potassium (K(+)) is the most abundant cation in dental plaque fluid. Previously, we reported the link between K(+) transport via Trk2 in Streptococcus mutans and its two critical virulence attributes: acid tolerance and surface adhesion. Herein, we b

Amyloids have been identified as functional components of the extracellular matrix of bacterial biofilms. Streptococcus mutans is an established aetiologic agent of dental caries and a biofilm dweller. In addition to the previously identified amyloid

Genetic competence provides bacteria with an opportunity to increase genetic diversity or acquire novel traits conferring a survival advantage. In the cariogenic pathogen Streptococcus mutans, DNA transformation is regulated by the competence stimula

Listeria monocytogenes is an important food-borne pathogen whose ability to form disinfectant-tolerant biofilms on a variety of surfaces presents a food safety challenge for manufacturers of ready-to-eat products. We developed here a high-throughput

In Streptococcus mutans, ComX, an alternative sigma factor, drives the transcription of the “late-competence genes” required for genetic transformation. ComX activity is modulated by inputs from two signaling pathways, ComDE and ComRS, that respo

Bacteria growing in biofilms are often in metabolic and physiological states that do not respond well to antibiotics, and thus, are major contributors to chronic diseases. Biofilm inhibitors, therefore, have the potential to be used alone or as adjuv
