In Porphyromonas gingivalis VimF is involved in gingipain maturation through the transfer of galactose.
Previously, we have reported that gingipain activity in Porphyromonas gingivalis, the major causative agent in adult periodontitis, is post-translationally regulated by the unique Vim proteins including VimF, a putative glycosyltransferase. To further characterize VimF, an isogenic mutant defective...
