Association of the rgpB gingipain genotype to the major fimbriae (fimA) genotype in clinical isolates of the periodontal pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis
BACKGROUND: Porphyromonas gingivalis produces outer membrane-attached proteins that include the virulence-associated cysteine proteinases RgpA and RgpB (Arg-gingipains) and Kgp (Lys-gingipain).
