Dynamics of Streptococcus mutans Transcriptome in Response to Starch and Sucrose during Biofilm Development

The combination of sucrose and starch in the presence of surface-adsorbed salivary α-amylase and bacterial glucosyltransferases increase the formation of a structurally and metabolically distinctive biofilm by Streptococcus mutans. This host-pathogen-diet interaction may modulate the formation of pa...
