The S. mutans Δdpr strain is phenotypically unstable. When exposed to a lethal concentration of FeSO4 (5 mM), independent cultures of the Δdpr strain fall into two phenotypically distinct clusters: one is highly sensitive (∼3-log-greater sensitivity than UA159), while the other is moderately sensitive to FeSO4.
