Porphyromonas gingivalis IgG–SMAP28 conjugate-mediated killing of P. gingivalis in an artificially generated microbial community containing Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans and Peptostreptococcus micros. (a,b) Two separate experiments show the decline of P. gingivalis after incubation with the conjugate. (c) At 30 min there was a clear reduction of small black P. gingivalis colonies. Colonies of A. actinomycetemcomitans and P. micros are still visible. The final concentration of conjugate protein was 20 μg/mL. IgG, immunoglobulin G; SMAP28, sheep myeloid antimicrobial peptide 28. CFU, colony-forming units.
