RPS production by wild-type S. gordonii 38 and ermAM insertional mutant strains
Strain | Mutant | RPS production (μg of RPS/109 bacteriaa) | Coaggregation scoreb |
---|---|---|---|
38 | Wild type | 4.5 ± 1.2 | 4 |
XC1 | wzg | 2.5 ± 0.9 | 4 |
XC2 | wchA | <0.004 | 0 |
XC3 | wefE | <0.004 | 0 |
XC4 | orfO | 3.1 ± 1.5 | 4 |
XC5 | orfP | 5.4 ± 2.5 | 4 |
RPS production was determined by inhibition of ELISA with S. gordonii 38 RPS as a standard.
Coaggregation score (0 to 4) with A. naeslundii 12104.
