Differential transcription of virulence genes in Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans serotypes

Background: Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans serotypes are clearly associated with periodontitis or health, which suggests distinct strategies for survival within the host. Objective: We investigated the transcription profile of virulence-associated genes in A. actinomycetemcomitans serotype b...
