The Streptococcus mutans ComX-regulon encompasses > 200 mostly uncharacterized genes, including cinA. Here we report that cinA is regulated by ComX in the presence of the competence stimulating peptide (CSP), wherein loss of CinA (strain SmuCinA) res

The regulation of acid production in and the tolerance to low pH of the cariogenic bacterium Streptococcus mutans have garnered considerable attention since both of these properties contribute substantially to the virulence of this organism. Frequent

Aim: To assess potential function of each two-component signal transduction system in the expression of Streptococcus mutans virulence properties. Methods and Results: For each two-component system (TCS), the histidine kinase-encoding gene was inacti

Streptococcus mutans is one of the best-known biofilm-forming organisms associated with humans. We investigated the role of the sortase gene ( srtA ) in monospecies biofilm formation and observed that inactivation of srtA caused a decrease in biofilm

In Streptococcus mutans , both competence and bacteriocin production are controlled by ComC and the ComED two-component signal transduction system. Recent studies of S. mutans suggested that purified ComE binds to two 11-bp direct repeats in the nlmC

Glutamate contributes to the acid tolerance response (ATR) of many Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria, but its role in the ATR of the oral bacterium Streptococcus mutans is unknown. This study describes the discovery and characterization of a g

Maintaining cell envelope integrity is critical for bacterial survival, including bacteria living in a complex and dynamic environment such as the human oral cavity. Streptococcus mutans , a major etiological agent of dental caries, uses two-componen

Aims: To identify the genes regulated by RR11, the regulator of the Streptococcus mutans HK/RR11 two-component system. Methods and Results: The S. mutans RR11-encoding gene was inactivated, and the effects of gene disruption on the cell’s ability t

The signal recognition particle (SRP)-translocation pathway is conserved in all three domains of life and delivers membrane and secretory proteins to the cytoplasmic membrane or endoplasmic reticulum. We determined the requirement in the cariogenic o

Streptococcus mutans is considered one of the main causative agents of human dental caries. Cell–cell communication through two-component signal transduction systems (TCSTS) plays an important role in the pathogenesis of S. mutans. One of the S. mu
