Phylogenetic diversity in fim and mfa gene clusters between Porphyromonas gingivalis and Porphyromonas gulae, as a potential cause of host specificity

BACKGROUND: Periodontopathic bacteria Porphyromonas gingivalis in humans and Porphyromonas gulae in animals are phylogenetically close and commonly have FimA and Mfa1 fimbriae. However, little is known about how fimA and mfa1 are phylogenetically different between P. gingivalis and P. gulae. Here, w...
