The potential use of glycosyl-transferase inhibitors for targeted reduction of S. mutans biofilms in dental materials

Streptococcus mutans is the primary oral caries-forming bacteria, adept at producing “sticky” biofilms via the synthesis of insoluble extracellular polysaccharides (EPS), catalyzed by glucosyltransferases (GTFs). To circumvent the use of broad-spectrum antibiotics to combat these bacteria, this stud...
