Regulation of Recombination between gtfB/gtfC Genes in Streptococcus mutans by Recombinase A

Regulation of Recombination between gtfB/gtfC Genes in Streptococcus mutans by Recombinase A

Streptococcus mutans produces 3 types of glucosyltransferases (GTFs), whose cooperative action is essential for cellular adhesion. The recombinase A (RecA) protein is required for homologous recombination. In our previous study, we isolated several strains with a smooth colony morphology and low GTF...
