目录:
- Deletion of cas3 gene in Streptococcus mutans affects biofilm formation and increases fluoride sensitivity
- Introduction
- Materials and methods
- Bacterial strains and growth conditions
- Construction of cas3 gene deletion mutant
- Complementation of the cas3 mutation in trans
- Growth curve measurement
- Crystal violet staining
- Quantitative determination of water-insoluble EPS
- Biofilm analysis and structural imaging
- Dual-species interaction within the biofilm
- Fluoride tolerance assays
- Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR)
- Statistical analysis
- Results
- Deletion of cas3 in S. mutans leads to decreased biofilm biomass and EPS production
- S. mutans Δcas3 strain forms less and thinner biofilm
- S. mutans Δcas3 exhibits increased sensitivity to fluoride and compromised competitiveness against S. sanguinis under fluoride treatment
- Expression of biofilm formation related gene in S. mutans lacking cas3
