Proline-rich protein from S. mutans can perform a competitive mineralization function to enhance bacterial adhesion to teeth

A proline-rich region was found in Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) surface antigen I/II (Ag I/II). The functions of this region were explored to determine its role in the cariogenic abilities of S. mutans; specifically, the proline-rich region was compared with human amelogenin. The full-length ame...
