The Impairment of Methyl Metabolism From luxS Mutation of Streptococcus mutans

The Impairment of Methyl Metabolism From luxS Mutation of Streptococcus mutans

The luxS gene is present in a wide range of bacteria and is involved in many cellular processes. LuxS mutation can cause autoinducer(AI)-2 deficiency and methyl metabolism disorder. The objective of this study was to demonstrate that, in addition to AI-2-mediated quorum sensing (QS), methyl metaboli...
